SCC College Alliance
     Shared Governance Model

Under the guidance of its current President, Dr. Joe Dunlap, Spokane Community College sought to articulate a vision for an improved shared governance model developed through the collaborative efforts of College and Finance Council members, the Council of Chairs, the Classified Staff Council, and other constituent groups. Drafts of the model were presented and evaluated in various campus venues throughout 2007-2008. President Dunlap and faculty member Bill Rambo communicated the model to the entire college at an All-College Meeting on April 29, 2008. Further feedback was incorporated into the model which was again distributed to the college community via email on June 12, 2008. The new model, as diagrammed and described in the documents linked below, was implemented at the start of the 2008-2009 academic year. This model is fluid and will continue to evolve as we learn what works best for the college community.
