facility. She said that most recently he was involved in the
establishment of the digital photography lab, which opened in 2002. Roy
and Charlotte Sparks will be spending the next few months traveling in
New England, she said.
Chairman Kelly thanked Professor Sparks for his work at the College.
Dr. Proulx introduced Don and Linda Schoene. She said that Mr. Schoene
was employed in the electrical and electronics field for over 30 years,
and recently received his five-year service award from CCBC. Mr. Schoene

Telecommunications Division since 1999. During his tenure at CCBC Mr.
Schoene worked with the instructional technology area to improve the
electronic/electricity lab by incorporating state-of-the-art
computer-aided, interactive instructional systems. He also worked with
local industries to enhance enrollment in the electricity/electronics
program and has worked to improve the course content in that area, said
Dr. Proulx.
Chairman Kelly thanked Mr. Schoene for his work at the College.
Dr. Branch introduced Shoko Brant. He said that Professor Brant has been
a dynamic member of the Essex campus faculty for over 30 years. She
epitomizes one of the most student-centered faculty members, said Dr.
Branch. Professor Brant has been at the forefront of using new and
emerging technology for teaching mathematics. Dr. Branch stated that
during her tenure at CCBC, Professor Brant has presented over 120
lectures and workshops at national and regional conferences; was a
teacher for an in-service information technology training programs for
high school and middle-school mathematics teachers; developed a set of
instructional video tapes for students and teachers of intermediate
algebra; and for many years, served as chairman of mathematics search
committees, bringing to CCBC, excellent and diverse new teachers;
chaired the Science and Mathematics Scholarship Committee; was
responsible for creating a “graphic calculator loan” program; and
received exemplary ratings from her students. He stated that Professor
Brant is an outstanding example of faculty excellence and that is what
CCBC is all about.
Chairman Kelly thanked Professor Brant for her work at the College.
Dr. Andrew Jones introduced Dr. Robert Sopka, retired professor of
Physics, Astronomy, and Earth Science, and a candidate for Professor
Emeritus.
Dr. Jones said that Dr. Sopka began his career at Catonsville Community

the Planetarium; and assisted with the men’s lacrosse team. In 1980, Dr.
Sopka assumed the role as division chairman of the Physics, Earth
Science, Astronomy, and Geography department. Dr. Jones said that Bob
Sopka, in addition to his role at CCBC, was a weather forecaster and
co-anchor for news shows at WJZ-TV. He said that Dr. Sopka’s strong and
various contributions to the College, and his respected status in the
community-at-large makes him a worthy candidate for the status of
Professor Emeritus.
Chairman Kelly thanked Dr. Sopka for his efforts on behalf of the
College.
Dr. Sopka said that the role of Professor Emeritus provides a mechanism
for someone to remain a part of the institution and he appreciates the
honor.
Professor Schoene thanked the College for the opportunity to serve at
CCBC Dundalk – he said it was the epiphany of his teaching career.
Chairman Kelly, on behalf of the Board of Trustees, commended and
thanked the retirees and Dr. Sopka. He said that no words could express
the Board’s gratitude for their years of service.
Phase II College Academic and Administrative Restructuring Plan
Chancellor McPhail made a PowerPoint presentation of the Phase II
College Academic and Administrative Restructuring Plan. He said that
during the past several months, the College has been exploring different
budget scenarios. He said that the College is reasonably certain that it
will sustain a 7.5% cut in State-Aid, which amounts to a $2.4M cut in
FY04 for CCBC. Dr. McPhail said that there is still uncertainty if the
Hold Harmless Provision, which is another $1.2 Million cut, is included.
This could amount to a $3.6M cut in FY04, in addition to the 4%
State-Aid reduction already sustained by CCBC last year. Dr. McPhail
said that these budget scenarios provided part of the framework for the
analysis and planning of the restructuring plan. In addition to fiscal
issues, the administration has focused on a set of values that has
provided the context for the difficult decisions that have been made.
Dr. McPhail outlined the fundamental principles that served as the
guiding value for the Learning-College:
1. the administration focused on student learning and the requirement
that all actions and all recommendations by the College be subject to
responding to two fundamental questions: 1) Does this action improve and
expand learning? and 2) How do we know?
2. Academic programs are a higher priority than non-academic programs.
3. Cuts will generally not be made “across-the-board.” Surgical cuts
will be made in such a manner as to minimize the threat to the
institutional commitment to LearningFirst.
4. Seeking external grant support and major gifts from a variety of
sources is a high priority and must be aggressively pursued.
5. CCBC is a public community college that serves the public interest.
Increased tuition must be used to maintain and build upon CCBC’s
national prominence as a Vanguard Learning College. The State and County
must determine to fully fund CCBC and not to substitute tuition revenue,
grant funding, or major gifts for taxpayer support.
6. Administrative structures must be as lean and efficient as possible,
and the general size of the administration must be reduced. (Dr. McPhail
stated that this principle was addressed in Phase I of the restructuring
plan, eliminating a number of administrative positions and the
administration will continue to focus on creating a “mean and lean”
structure in Phase II.)
7. CCBC cannot be all things to all people. CCBC must have the courage
to eliminate or consolidate programs in order to preserve the overall
excellence of the College and the institutional commitment to
LearningFirst.
8. Students, faculty, staff and others should be consulted when budget
reductions are necessary. Those closest to the situation often have the
best ideas about how to provide services more efficiently. However, the
pace of change and the timing of budget pronouncements from agencies
beyond the control of the College may provide encumbrances to
comprehensive consultation with all constituent groups before action
must be taken by the College administrators.
9. CCBC’s commitment to LearningFirst encompasses the resolve to attract
and retain a diverse faculty, staff, and student community, and to
promote a learning environment that embraces and values diversity.
Retrenchment decisions must be made with this commitment to embracing
diversity in mind.
10. Providing a first class academic environment and attendant
facilities is an essential ingredient of CCBC’s mission.
Dr. McPhail continued by stating that the aforementioned 10 fundamental
principles have guided the administration’s work in retrenchment
planning and provided the foundation for the restructuring
recommendations. He said that the Phase II reorganization plan manifests
the commitment to make administrative structures as lean and efficient
as possible, while continuing the focus on the major goal of improved
student learning. Dr. McPhail outlined the proposals:
1. Two Campus President Model
This plan broadens the role of campus presidents by encompassing a
greater degree for each of them in College-Wide areas of control. The
proposal calls for a campus president for CCBC Dundalk and CCBC Essex,
and a campus president for CCBC Catonsville and the CCBC Extension
Centers.
2. Integrated CCBC Dundalk CCBC Essex Campus Administration Model
This plan allows for a single administrative organization to manage a
single Eastside campus in two geographic locations allowing for an
initial savings of $135,000. Additional advantages include a more
integrated approach to campus administration, which would include class
schedules and course offerings resulting in better delivery of services
and improved facilities utilization.
Dr. McPhail stated that the Board of Trustees, in its June 23, 2003,
executive session, approved the proposed reorganization two-campus
president model, as well as a more integrated organizational structure
for CCBC Dundalk and CCBC Essex on an interim basis. He announced that
as of July 1, 2003, Dr. Gena Proulx will be the Interim President of
CCBC Dundalk CCBC Essex; Dr. Barney Wilson will be the Interim Campus
Administration/Dundalk; and Dr. Andrew Jones will be the Interim
President of CCBC Catonsville and CCBC Extension Centers. Dr. McPhail
said that he will solicit feedback from interested members of the
community, as well as, interested parties on the Dundalk and Essex
campuses. At its September 10, 2003, meeting, the Board of Trustees will
revisit the proposed two-president president model for final
consideration, he said.
Dr. McPhail announced that the proposed reorganization also calls for a
College-Wide Academic Deans Model, which reduces the number of nine
academic deans to six College-Wide Academic Deans who will report to the
two campus presidents. He said that overall academic program
coordination will be provided by the Chief Learning Officers Council
(CLOC), which will consist of Dr. Henry Linck, Vice Chancellor for
Learning and Student Development, Dr. Andrew Jones, Interim Campus
President CCBC Catonsville and CCBC Extension Centers and Dr. Gena
Proulx, Interim Campus President CCBC Dundalk.Essex. Dr. McPhail noted
that the organizational chart includes the three school deans, Michael
Netzer, Dean, School of Information Technology; Carol Eustis, Dean,
School of Allied Health Professions; and Beth Barker, Dean, School of
Justice. In addition to the deans of the schools, Avon Garrett, Steve
Tanner, and Donna Linksz will assume the roles of College-Wide deans.
Dr. McPhail stated that the suggested organizational chart lists
Academic Program Coordinators, however, this aspect of the organization
will be modified.
Dr. McPhail said that Phase II reorganization builds upon position
consolidations that were made in Phase I and provides a foundation for
further administrative reductions that will continue on into other
phases, as long as CCBC continues to face fiscal challenges.
Dr. McPhail outlined the Eastside Partnership Plan. He said that the
goals and strategies of the partnership plan are to inform students of
the common educational offerings at the Dundalk and Essex campuses; to
advise and assist students in planning educational programs that can be
completed in a planned manner at the Dundalk and Essex campuses; to
promote the concept of seamless program completion at either campus;
sharing of full-time faculty; alignment of courses and programs;
alignment of business and industry activity; and a partnership that
supports an integrated school concept. He said that the administration
is looking at a three-year Eastside Partnership plan that will
contribute to a more comprehensive, unified approach to a more effective
course benefit ratio, as well as improving the institutional viability
of the entire College, such as, a single academic advisement plan, a
single approach to course cancellation, as well as a more comprehensive,
unified approach to community and public school outreach activities, and
a more streamlined student services support structure. These initiatives
are outcomes that will be realized, as the College attempts to mirror,
in a real sense, the one college model, and to bring that model more
aggressively to the Eastside, stated Chancellor McPhail.
Trustee Lingan recommended that various components of the reorganization
plan be voted on as separate recommendations.
Recommendation: That the Board of Trustees of The Community
College of Baltimore County separate the two-campus president model, the
college-wide academic deans model, and the integrated CCBC Dundalk CCBC
Essex campus administration model proposals and vote on each
recommendation separately.
The motion was made by Trustee Lingan and seconded by Trustee Kountz to
vote separately on the two-campus president model, the college-wide
academic deans model, and the integrated CCBC Dundalk CCBC Essex campus
administration model. The motion was unanimously passed.

suggested college-wide academic deans model as consistent with the
College’s continuing evolution to move toward a single college
institution.
Recommendation: That the Board of Trustees of The Community
College of Baltimore County accept the six college-wide academic dean
model.
The motion was made by Trustee Lingan and seconded by Trustee Brunner to
accept the six college-wide academic dean model. The motion was passed
unanimously.
Trustee Parker stressed that as the College becomes more efficient, he
would hope that it would not be necessary to create new positions for
academic program coordinators.
Trustee Lingan recommended that the Board of Trustees give the
Chancellor the approval to restructure, on an interim basis, the CCBC
Dundalk CCBC Essex campus administration model.
Recommendation: That the Board of Trustees of The Community

vote on the restructuring of the CCBC Dundalk CCBC Essex presidency
until the fall, subject to the Chancellor providing more context and
background information to the respective communities.

table the final vote on the restructuring of the CCBC Dundalk CCBC Essex
presidency until Fall 2003, subject to the Chancellor providing more

motion was unanimously accepted.
Trustee Parker requested that the Chancellor relay to the Board of
Trustees any reorganization feedback from the community.
Chairman Kelly thanked the Board of Trustees for the hard work and
diligence that they provide to the College, and to the areas they
represent. He said that the Board is very sensitive to the community,
and nothing will be voted on without thorough information and community
leader input; however, CCBC is a single college, multi-campus
institution and the Board of Trustees has a charge to represent
Baltimore County as a whole. Senator Kelly said that the Board of
Trustees would make changes in the best interest of the College. He said
that difficult decisions have to be made during extreme fiscal times. He
continued by saying that many positive things are taking place at CCBC –
enrollment is increasing, new programs are being implemented, and great
faculty and staff are employed at the College. Chairman thanked Dr.
McPhail for the vision that he has brought to the College during his
