INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Medina
FEBRUARY 17, 2016
An act to add Section 87881.5 to the Education Code, relating to
community colleges.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2069, as amended, Medina. Part-time faculty office hours.
Existing law creates the Community College Part-Time Faculty
Office Hours Program to provide community college students equal
access to academic advice assistance and to encourage community
college districts to provide opportunities by compensating part-time
faculty who hold office hours related to their teaching load. The
governing board of each community college district that establishes
such a program is required to negotiate, or meet and confer, to
establish a program to provide part-time faculty office hours.
This bill would require each community college district to
report report, on or before August 15 of each
year, the total part-time faculty office hours paid divided by
the total part-time faculty office hours taught during the
prior fiscal year and post this information on its Internet Web
site.
To the extent that the bill would impose new duties on community
college districts, it would constitute a state-mandated local
program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Section 87881.5 is added to the Education Code, to
read:
87881.5. Each On or before August 15 of
each year, each community college district shall
report the total part-time faculty office hours paid divided by the
total part-time faculty hours taught during the prior fiscal
year and prominently post this information on its Internet Web
site.
SEC. 2. If the Commission on State Mandates determines that this
act contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement to local
agencies and school districts for those costs shall be made pursuant
to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of
the Government Code.
