Summary
Board heard updates on student life and academic programs: veterinary technology reported stable second‑year enrollment, intramurals and service projects drew participation, and the new Student Engagement Board ran high‑attendance events including a fall painting with 67 participants.
College representatives updated the board on several academic programs and student engagement efforts.
A campus report highlighted robust intramurals (170 students in bowling, disc golf and other activities) and student organization activity: landscape horticulture students completed a honey harvest at McCross and Boys Ranch, the early childhood program stuffed stockings for Veri Behavioral Health, and the nursing student organization hosted a family 'fiesta' event. The college also added a student chapter of the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America tied to the veterinary technology program.
Taylor, marketing chair of the newly formed Student Engagement Board, described the board’s first semester of programming: a fall painting event that drew 67 students, a Halloween costume contest, a game fest with board and online games, and a monthly schedule of events intended to build community and civic responsibility.
On the Veterinary Technology program, an instructor reported roughly 26 students in the second‑year class with hopes of growing the incoming first‑year cohort to about 30–32; typical attrition of 2–3 students between years was described as within national norms for two‑year programs.
The board acknowledged the report by voice vote.
