The officer would work with various departments to search for qualified, prospective candidates for hiring keeping in constant communications with other Ca,lifornia community colleges as well, continued Gutierrez. Gutierrez urged the necessity of creating the position on an administrative level to give added emphasis to achieve affirmative action. President Gray voiced objection to inclusion of this position in the policy body, considering it to be part of the procedures necessary to achieve affirmative action. Gray, whoever, expressed his recognition of the full value in creating such a position of an Affirmative Action officer. A motion was then made by Senator Stroud to amend Gray's policy to include an Affirmative Action Officer. The motion passed with one opposed and three abstentions. After final adoption of the policy by the Senate, mention was made that the item would very likely go to a conference Gutierrez stressed that such an officer committee since the policy adopted was would coordinate efforts for affirmative radically different from that adopted by action, instead of leaving total respon- the Cabinet.

Necessity for immediate action on the part of the Senate in adopting a policy came in light of the Cabinet's adoption of an Affirmative Action Policy on the Thursday prior to the Senate's special meeting. If the Senate wished further input to Affirmative Action, Gray emphasized the need for immediate action from the Senate in adopting a policy. Debate during discussion of the policy came from Dave Gutierrez, representing July I. The position of assistant dean has the San Jose Comm unity College not been filled as of this printing.

During last week's Senate meeting. President Gray informed the Senate that their adopted Affirmative Action Policy ran Into opposition ·from the Administration. , The Administration did not agree with creating a separate post of an Affirmative Action Officer, nor was there agreement on hiring an individual to fill such a post. Administrative preference at the present time, informed Gray, would be to assign responsibility to a n individual already on the administrative staff. Among other discussion items during the special May 15 meeting was a report on the Conference Committee on college structure . The item would include possible restructuring of existing departmental systems . Such a change has net with resistance · from the various department chairmen who wish to retain the present structure. In light of the fact that a new college president will be taking office on July 1, Stu Bennett, committee chairman, recommended the Senate charge the committee to take no action unt;l that time. The Senate moved to follow the suggestion and take no action until the new president assumes his duties, and possibly allow him to re-evaluate the need for college restructuring.

The students must go through a selection process. Mrs . Ballard concluded by saying " I try and encourage ethnic backgrounds in the program, nurses are needed in all cultures.
