Found not Feasible

Whereas AB 1725 intended that each California community college district achieve a full-time/part-time faculty ratio of 75:25, and

Whereas after 10 years many districts have not yet achieved this ratio, with some districts still very far from this goal, and

Whereas the 75:25 ratio is in the best interest of students, faculty and the quality of education, and

Whereas State legislation is pending (Havice AB 1353 and Vasconcellos SB 877), as of 4/12/97, which will mandate increased faculty hiring to help achieve the legal ratio of 75:25 in each of our California community college districts,

Resolved that the Academic Senate direct the Executive Committee to seek a commitment from local trustees, CEOs and local academic senates to establish and maintain a 75:25ratio at each California community college.
