Download II.C.4 2016 Redwoods GVC Program Review

College of the Redwoods
Golden Valley Conference
2016 Program Review
Prepared by Joe Hash, Dean of Students and Athletics
-1-
The following document addresses the 2011 GVC Program Review
recommendations:
1.
Coaches should have a consistent policy to assure that student athlete
academic progress reports are completed in a timely manner. This comes from
Standard Five – Academic Achievement & Support.
A. The athletic director issues the academic attendance and/or progress reports and
sets the date for return of the reports to the athletic department secretary.
B. Reports are issued to head coaches electronically and in hard-copy.
C. The secretary tracks the return of the reports by team and reports to the athletic
director any delinquent reports.
D. The director works with the coach to ensure any delinquent reports are returned
and that measures taken to ensure the issue does not reoccur.
2.
Standard Six – Citizenship
There was some thought that the entire
coaching faculty should have to attend a Sexual Harassment Workshop each school
year.
The district’s Human Resources office will be instituting sexual harassment and Title
IX training for all employees, including head and assistant coaches, this academic
year 2016-17.
3.
Standard Seven – Gender Equity An item that needs to be addressed is the
women’s team locker room does not have outside access to the room, which can lead
to access issues by male coaches of female sports. In addition, the biggest issue was
that although the practice and game areas are equitable the fields drainage
problems need to be addressed.
A. The women’s team room now has additional access from the weight room as well
as from inside the women’s locker room. A door exists between the weight room
and the team room. It was previously blocked and unused. We have cleared the
area so now this door is operational. This gives male coaches of women’s sports
access to the team room from the weight room side, so women’s teams can use
the room as a meeting area for pre-game, halftime and post=game as do men’s
teams and their use of the men’s team room.
-2-
B. All of the fields have similar issues with drainage regardless of which teams use
them. Field maintenance issues such as drainage and steps being taken for
improvement are addressed in the fourth recommendation below.
4.
The major concern of this entire report is the condition of the baseball,
softball, and football/soccer fields. All of these fields need improved drainage
systems and better playing surfaces, so that they can be assets for the college for
games as well as practices.
The district has allocated funds remaining from its last bond, Measure Q for field
upgrades. Measure Q funds have been set aside and architectural plans have been
developed, The plans have been granted approval from the Division of the State
Architects (DSA) and they are currently being put out for bid. These plans include
field/turf renovation on all three fields: baseball, softball and stadium (soccer and
football) as well as new irrigation. They also include building a new beach volleyball
facility. The plans also include improving ADA access for all fields and for the
stadium concession stand.

Athletics. The meeting pays special attention to the rules and regulations pertaining to
recruiting (CCCAA Bylaw 2). A review of contiguous recruiting boundaries is included
and each coach is issued a compilation of local areas schools, contiguous areas and
contiguous area schools. Also covered are the rules pertinent to the CCCAA bylaws
dealing with out of season competition. Each coach signs the Form R-2 and each head

D. VIOLATION PROCESS
-6-
College of the Redwoods utilizes the CCCAA Constitution as a guidance policy in
dealing with any team violation or any individual violation and follows the appropriate
process.
When a violation is suspected or reported, the Director of Athletics will notify the
appropriate Vice President, and/or the President, to meet and review the alleged violation.
A meeting is then set with the involved parties (coaches, athletes, staff) to discuss the
matter and gather information. An in-house determination of action is reported to the
President.
If a violation of the COA Constitution is determined to have occurred, the President or
his/her designee will notify the Conference Commissioner. All offending parties
(coaches, athletes, staff) will receive due process with a judgment made by the President
or designee.
E. OUT-OF-SEASON COMPETITION
College of the Redwoods adheres to the CCCAA rules and regulations for any out-of
season competition. The Director of Athletics meets with the head coaches who are
eligible to participate in the non-traditional season of sport. Bylaw 3.17 is discussed at
that time. College of the Redwoods policy for funding of the non-traditional season is
limited to transportation. All other funds used come from the sport trust account.
F. CONTROL: STUDENT ATHLETES
Payment of enrollment fees, tuition and books.
It is the sole responsibility of each student athlete to pay for enrollment fees, tuition and
textbooks. The Business Office handles the payment and collection of enrollment
fees/tuition. Any financial aid or grants that are used to pay for these fees are taken care
of by the Business Office via the Financial Aid office All students are responsible for
purchasing their books for their classes. College of the Redwoods does not subsidize
student-athletes in these areas.
Room and Board
Each College of the Redwoods student is responsible for his/her own room and board.
All housing arrangements and rental agreements are the sole responsibility of the student
athlete and his/her family.
Transportation Costs
All prospective student-athletes are responsible for providing and paying for their own
transportation to and from College of the Redwoods. The college does not supply or
reimburse student athletes for personal travel. College of the Redwoods, using vehicles
rented by the college, provides transportation to away contests. Students attending
College of the Redwoods have access to public transportation.

STANDARD TWO—ELIGIBILITY PROCESSING
A. FORM PROCEDURES
Form 1
The Director of Athletics administers the Form 1 at the initial team meeting directed by
the Athletic Director and the team coach. The team members complete and sign the
form at the meeting.
The Director of Athletics checks the Form 1’s to ensure they are completed correctly and
the coach and the Athletic Director sign each form. The forms are then delivered to the
Eligibility Clerk. The Eligibility Clerk is responsible for ensuring that all of the
requirements have been met by the student-athlete. After verifying eligibility, the Form 1
is then signed by the Dean of Student Development. The original form is sent to the
Conference Commissioner. A duplicate is placed in the student-athlete’s file. All studentathlete files are kept in the office of the Director of Athletics in a locked cabinet
Form 2
Athletic Tracer Form 2’s are sent out by the Athletic Director to the student-athlete’s
prior college of attendance. Completed forms are faxed back to the Athletic office and
reviewed. The information provided is used to complete the bottom portion of the Form 1
– Student Eligibility Report. A copy is made and placed in the student-athlete’s file.
Form 3
The PE & Athletic Department Secretary completes the Form 3 from information
provided on the individual Form 1 forms. The form is then given to the coach and the
Athletic Director to check for any errors. The Form 3 is then forwarded to the Eligibility
Clerk and then the Dean of Student Development for signature. Once signed, the form is
then sent electronically to the COA by the Athletic Director and a hard copy is mailed by
the athletic secretary to the Conference Commissioner along with the Form 1’s.
-8-
B. FORM LOCATION
All eligibility paperwork including Form 1’s, Form 2’s, Form 3’s and Form C’s are kept
in the Athletic Director’s office. The last five years are kept in the AD’s office; later
years are stored in a storage area located upstairs in the gymnasium.
C. ELIGIBILITY CHANGES
It is the Director of Athletics responsibility to stay current on all policies and to
communicate any changes with the entire department. If the change happens before
the start of school, the change is reviewed at the first departmental meeting. If after
that, it is sent out by email to all coaches and discussed at department meetings.
D. S.E.P. COMPLIANCE
1. Describe the process for developing Student Education Plans (S.E.P.)
First year student athletes are reminded in the spring of the requirement to have an SEP in
place before their second season of competition. They are encouraged to make an
appointment with the Athletic Advisor to attain the SEP. In the fall semester, the
Director of Athletics verifies which prospective second year athletes have SEP’s and
which do not on the college ‘G-Drive’ which stores all SEP’s. Those athletes not having
SEP’s are notified they need to make an appointment with the advisor and that their
eligibility will not be certified until they have completed the SEP.
2. Where are the S.E.P.’s stored?
Student Educational Plans are stored on the college’s ‘G-Drive’ in the college computer
system. Currently only Counseling and Advising Department staff and the Director of
Athletics all have access G-Drive to verify SEP completion. A hardcopy of the SEP is
given to the student.
E. BYLAWS 1.3.1 AND 1.4.2
Every Tuesday morning the Director of Athletics runs a report through the college
computer system which indicates, by team, the amount of units in which each student
athlete on that team is currently enrolled. If a student athlete shows up on the report as
under 12 units the Athletic Director and coach then confer on the situation. The student
athlete is notified of the situation and of the fact that they are unable to participate until
the situation is rectified.
-9-
STANDARD THREE—PHILOSOPHY
A. STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
The College of the Redwoods Athletic Department strives to provide our student athletes
with a quality academic experience. This will ensure that all student athletes are given
the guidance to aid them in meeting their educational goals and transfer requirements.

STANDARD FIVE—ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AND SUPPORT
A. DESCRIBE ACTIVITIES DIRECTED TWOARD SUPPORTING STUDENT
ATHLETIC MATRICULATION
- 13 -
Prospective student athletes are directed by the head coach to follow the appropriate steps
for successful enrollment. Steps for “How to Become a Corsair” are listed on the
Athletics website.
1. The student athlete is directed to complete an Enrollment Form and the Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form.
2. All student athletes are required to take the college’s math and English placement
tests.
3. For the past year, each student athlete would then set-up an appointment with an
academic advisor assigned to their team in order to register for classes. Starting
this spring, the athletic department has an academic advisor assigned to the
department. Now, student athletes will see her in order to set-up their class
schedules.
The college also conducts a series of spring events called ‘Redwood Days’ for any
student wishing to matriculate to the college. During the ‘Redwood Days’ process
students submit an Enrollment Form, take assessment tests and participate in the initial
academic advising process. All prospective student athletes are strongly urged to attend
these events.
If the student athlete’s assessment test reflects a potential learning disability the student is
referred to DSPS for learning disability testing. Those students identified as having a
learning disability are offered assistance through the DSPS department. These services
include, but are not limited to: prioritized registration, specialized counseling, adaptive
equipment, adaptive technology assistance, test accommodations, interpreters, and
specialized tutoring.
The Athletic Academic Advisor tracks the total amount of units a student is enrolled in
for eligibility purposes. All students who participate in intercollegiate athletics must be
enrolled in 12 or more units with 9 of those units meeting the CCCAA criteria for
academic units. They must also be enrolled in the proper intercollegiate athletics
course(s) for their sport.

C. PLANNING THE ACADEMIC SCHEDULE
Our goal is to have the Athletic Academic Advisor meet with each student athlete to
assist them in setting up their academic schedule.
The Advisor is able to place the student in the proper Math and English courses based on
the students’ assessment scores. The Advisor can also place the student in the proper
academic courses based on their English level. The Advisor also reviews the students
educational plan and ensures the student is on track to graduate on time and transfer to a
university if desired. When developing the student schedule, the Athletic Academic
Advisor uses the specific team practice time, as well as the strength and/or conditioning
class schedule to form the academic schedule, ensuring the student stays on track toward
their specific academic goals.
D. ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES
The athletic department issues Academic Progress Reports three times each semester.
The purpose of the reports is to monitor each student athletes’ attendance and
performance. The athlete is required to present the progress report to each of their
instructors, have their work and attendance assessed, then signed by the instructor and
returned to the coach.
The reports are returned to the athletic secretary who makes copies for the Athletic
Academic Advisor. The Advisor meets with student athletes who are experiencing
academic issues to provide guidance in improvement.
Student athletes at College of the Redwoods have a variety of support systems available
to them on campus. Support includes:
Counseling and Advising Center: provides services including Academic Advising,
Career Counseling/Decision Making, Educational Planning/Student Education Plan,
Crisis intervention
Writing Center: provides tutorial assistance from CR English instructors; One-to-one
help from trained peer tutors; Computers and printers for working on assignments and
- 16 -
essays; Copies of textbooks and reference books for use in the Writing Center; Answer

Extended Opportunity Program and Services (EOPS): a state funded program that
provides additional support services to students with financial and educational needs.
Eligibility is determined by income level and demonstration of need.
Disabled Students Programs and Services (DSPS): provides services to those persons
with physical, learning and psychological disabilities.
Career Development and Student Employment Center: provide one-stop career and job
search assistance in the following areas: Career Guidance Resources, Job Search and
Placement Assistance, Cooperative Education Opportunities, Federal Work Study
Opportunities

STANDARD SIX—CITIZENSHIP
A. DESCRIBED THE PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO FOSTER GOOD
CITIZENSHIP
- 18 -
Currently each coach conducts team meetings in which ‘good citizenship’ is a large part
of the discussion. Citizenship is also addressed at the initial team meeting in which the
Athletic Director discusses the elements of good citizenship and representation of the
team, department and college. The Director of Athletics takes each team through the
Student Athlete Handbook which addresses citizenship and the student athlete Code of
Conduct.
B. DESCRIBE THE PROCESS BY WHICH YOU COMMUNICATE THE
COMMISSION ON ATHLETIC DECORUM POLICY
The Commission on Athletics Decorum policy is discussed at the initial team meeting
when each student athletes reads and signs their Form 1 eligibility form which thoroughly
explains the decorum policy. Decorum is also covered when the Director of Athletics
takes each team through the Student Athlete Handbook. The last page of the handbook
covers CCCAA decorum rules and each student athlete signs that they have read and
acknowledge the rules.
The Head Coach is also responsible to support decorum through their game rules and
their written team rules. Head coaches are periodically reminded of the procedures to be
followed if there is a disqualification, suspension, or ejection. Head coaches will discuss
with the Athletic Director any circumstances that lead to the disqualification, suspension,
or ejection and what corrective action will need to take place. The Athletic Director must
notify the conference commissioner within 24 hours of the violation.
C. LIST THE NUMBER OF DECORUM VIOLATIONS FOR LAST YEAR,

D. DESCRIBE WHAT HAS BEEN DONE TO SENSITIZE YOUR ATHLETES
AND ATHLETIC STAFF TO SEXUAL HARASSMENT ISSUES.
- 19 -
Sexual harassment issues and proper conduct with members of the opposite sex are
discussed by coaches with student athletes in team meetings. The Director of Athletics
covers the topic as an important part of the student athlete handbook. Supervisory staff
must attend sexual harassment training; there is no other formal training for other staff.
Policies and information dealing with sexual harassment can be found in the College
Catalog including the contact and number for the Staff Diversity & Gender Equity
Coordinator if a person needs to file a sexual harassment complaint.
STANDARD SEVEN—GENDER EQUITY
A. USING THE 12 APPLICABLE COMPONENTS, WHAT IS YOUR COLLEGE
DOING TO ACHIEVE AND COMPLY WITH GENDER EQUITY?
1. Athletic Financial Assistance.
- 20 -
Does not apply to California community colleges.
2. Accommodations of Interests and Abilities.
College of the Redwoods has attempted to respond to the interests and abilities of the
community in its athletic offerings. Currently the Athletic Department offers the
following women’s sports: Soccer, Basketball , Volleyball, Cross Country, Track and
Softball . Men’s sport offerings are: Football, Basketball, Baseball, Cross Country,
Soccer, Track.
3. Equipment and Supplies.
Budgets are equally allotted to men’s and women’s coaches for equipment and
supplies. Budget amounts for equipment and supplies have been cut considerably over
the last few years due to the budget crises. We have attempted to make these cuts on an
equitable basis. The head coach is responsible for ordering and monitoring his or her
budget.
4. Scheduling of Game and Practice Times
The respective coach of each sport is responsible for scheduling their preconference contests. The league schedules are set by the respective conferences.
Practice time is usually allotted to in 2-hour blocks. Coaches meet and decide their
respective practice times. If coaches are in disagreement, the Athletic Director will
decide the practice time, though this has not had to occur in the last five years. A rotation
practice schedule has been used for gym time over the last few years.
5. Travel and Per Diem Allowance
Travel to athletic contests is by college rented vehicles: bus, vans, cars. Travel
requests are submitted by each coach. Travel budgets are another area that suffered
greatly from cuts. Again, it has been attempted to administer cuts as equitably as
possible. Vehicle rental arrangements are made by each coach with Enterprise Car
Rental. Per diem allowances are $18 per day. Lodging is included in each team’s travel
budget.
6. Tutors
College of the Redwoods does not have athletic tutors at this time. The same tutoring is
available to all student athletes as is available to all non-athletic students.
- 21 -
7. Coaches
For the 2010-11 academic year there were twelve intercollegiate sports. Sports with
head coaches who were part-time: football, men’s and women’s cross country, women’s
soccer, men’s basketball and women’s basketball, men’s track and women’s track. Three
had full-time head coaches: volleyball, softball and baseball.
8. Locker Room, Practice and Competitive Facilities
Men and women have their own locker rooms. Practice and competitive facilities are all
on campus. Softball and baseball have their own facilities for practice and competition.
Football and soccer share the stadium as a competition facility. Football and soccer
spread their practices on a number of fields so as not to wear out one particular field. The
volleyball and basketball teams all share the gymnasium for practice and competition.
The softball, baseball and basketball teams will occasionally use the Fieldhouse for
practices.
9. Medical and Training Facilities and Services
All teams and student athletes have access to the athletic training facility and athletic
trainer. The athletic trainer is a full-time college employee.
10. Housing and Dining Facilities and Services
College of the Redwoods has on-campus dormitories and a cafeteria. The dormitory
accommodates approximately 150 students. The cost of housing and meal plans are
arranged through Student Services.
11. Publicity
It is the responsibility of a head coach to report game results to the media. Sports
information coverage is done on an equal basis with coverage of all sports having the
same coverage in the local newspapers, media guides, game day program, etc. The
college web site provides coverage for all sports in a fair and equitable manner as well.
12. Support Services
A variety of services are offered to all of our student-athletes as well as our general
student population through the Student Services area.
13. Recruitment of Student Athletics
Full-time coaches are granted release time for recruitment. Part-time coaches
are paid for recruitment. All head coaches whether full-time or part-time receive the
same compensation for recruitment, full-time coaches receive two teaching load units
- 22 -
(TLU’s) and part-time coaches receive a stipend equivalent to two TLU’s. There are no
recruiting budgets for any sports.

STANDARD EIGHT—FUNDRAISING
A. WHAT INSTITUTIONAL CONTROLS ARE IN PLACE TO INSURE
PROPER ACCOUNTING AND DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS RAISED FROM
FOUNDATIONS, TRUST ACCOUNTS, BOOSTER CLUBS AND DONATIONS?
- 23 -
The Athletic Department conducts two major fundraising events each year in the fall.
The first is a Dinner and Sports Auction. The second is the Corsair Walk-a-thon. A few
smaller fundraisers are conducted, usually by coaches with the approval of the Athletic
Director such as field signage sales, concession sales, etc. All funds are deposited into
the proper foundation accounts through the college’s business office by either the
Athletic Director or the Athletic Secretary. Each sport has its own trust account within
the Foundation.
B. DOES THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR HAVE INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL
OF ALL REVENUES AND EXPENSES GENERATED FROM THE
FOUNDATIONS, TRUST ACCOUNTS, BOOSTER CLUB AND DONATIONS?
IF NOT, WHO DOES?
The Athletic Director has control over all revenues and expenses generated from
fundraising and oversees that funds are deposited in the proper accounts and oversees all
expenditures from those accounts. Only the Athletic Director has signature authority to
release funds from trust accounts. Coaches cannot access their individual sport trust
accounts without first going through the Athletic Director for approval.
C. ARE THESE ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES IN WRITING AND IF SO, IN
WHAT DOCUMENT DO THEY APPEAR?
Accounting procedures are in writing on the Foundation ‘Pay To/Order’ Form. As
specified on the form, the Athletic Director can authorize expenditures of up to $3,000.
Expenditures of above $3,000 require approvals of the Foundation Executive Director,
Foundation President and/or College President. Foundation account reports are available
to coaches from either the Athletic Director or Athletic Secretary upon request.
D. DESCRIBE HOW REVENUE FROM FOUNDATIONS, TRUST ACCOUNTS,
BOOSTER CLUBS AND DONATIONS ARE DISTRIBUTED TO MEN’S AND
WOMEN’S ATHLETICS.
Revenue distribution for the Sports Auction is on a percent basis based on number of
participants per sport.
For the Corsair Walk, student athletes and coaches solicit walk pledges. Each program
keeps 90% of the money raised by their athletes and coaches, 10% goes to pay for event
expenses such as t-shirts, awards, and a brunch that is served for athletes and coaches
following the walk.
