Agreement with University of Florida for Health Education and Clinical 408.1991, 11-12 Care Program - Santa Fe Student Health Care Center The attached agreement is a renewal of the ongoing collaboration between the University of Florida’s (UF) Student Health Care Center and Santa Fe College’s (SF) Student Life program to provide health care information and education to SF students. As in previous years’ agreements, UF provides health care staff, medical supplies and equipment, and supervision of personnel. SF provides the physical facility and administrative equipment and support. The overall contract value is $135,000. This represents an 8% increase ($10,000) over the last year’s agreement, and is funded by student activity and service (A&S) fees. The funding for this contract is included in the 2012-2013 fiscal year A&S budget as approved by the A&S Budget Committee. This agreement continues to provide student access to a Registered Nurse (RN) on a full-time basis and to an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner (ARNP) on a part-time basis (12 hours per week during summer B term; 16 hours per week during fall and spring semesters; and 8 hours per week during summer A). The level of service in the 2012-2013 agreement is equivalent to the service provided in 2011-2012. The facility is located in S-120 and does NOT provide emergency care. The term of this agreement is July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2013. Board Action Requested: Approval



Title III Strengthening Institutions Program: Improving Student Success 409.1893, 11-12 Through a Transformational Math Redesign Program -- Grant The purpose of this project is to increase student success, retention, and graduation rates by developing a comprehensive math redesign program that includes assessment, placement, and mandatory math sequencing registration, course redesign, and professional development. Five math courses will be redesigned based on two models developed by the National Center for Academic Transformation (NCAT). A Math Emporium Studio has been developed and will continue to be expanded each year of the five-year project. During year five, the studio classes will be expanded to the Blount Center. Grant funds will be used to develop the Math Emporium Studio, programming for the math sequencing system, consultants for professional development, and evaluation, travel, and faculty stipends/release for course redesign. Nearly 7,000 students will benefit each semester after full implementation in year five. This is year five of a five-year project. The amount of funds requested from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education, is $398,202, with a cash match of $34,422 and an in-kind match of $55,500 from Santa Fe College. Total funding for the five-year project is $1,996,099. Duration of this project is October 1, 2012, through September 30, 2013. Operating budget impact: Funds are from approved college budgets. Indirect costs are not allowable costs. Board Action Requested:

Approval of grant. Upon legal review and approval, the president or his designee, Charles W. Clemons, Sr., Vice President for Development, is authorized to execute any

agreements and related documents associated with this grant.



Student Support Services -- Grant 409.1894, 11-12 The purpose of this project is to provide supplementary support services to low-income, first-generation, or disabled college students in order to increase student success as measured by retention, graduation, and transfer rates. Individual counseling, tutoring, and other extensive work in the basic academic subjects (mathematics, sciences, reading, and writing) will be the substance of the program. An additional part of the program includes a two-year/four-year initiative section, the purpose of which is to assist Santa Fe College project students in securing admission to and financial assistance for enrollment in four-year institutions of higher education. This is year three of a five-year project. This project will serve approximately 200 students per year. The amount of funds requested from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education, is $290,517, with an in-kind match of $19,977 from Santa Fe College.

C O N S E N T



Title III Eligibility -- Grant 409.1895, 11-12 It is important for Santa Fe College to maintain designation as a Title III eligible institution which is required in order to participate in the Title III grant funding competition. An additional benefit of obtaining the Title III eligibility designation is that it permits the college to waive certain non-federal share requirements of the College Work-Study and Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant programs authorized by Title IV of the Higher Education Act. Operating budget impact: The College is designated Title III eligible and therefore is able to waive approximately $169,326 in matching funds for Title IV. Currently, the college does not spend this money or budget these funds because it has been consistently successful in obtaining eligibility or a waiver from the Department of Education. Board Action Requested: Approval of grant. Upon legal review and approval, the president or his designee, Charles W. Clemons, Sr., Vice President for Development, is authorized to execute any agreements and related documents associated with this grant.

Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) Training and Safe Santa Fe 409.1896, 11-12 Initiative Byrne Grant 2012 The purpose of this project is to help fund the Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) and Safe Santa Fe Initiative at Santa Fe College. RAD is a national model recognized for training and empowering citizens in intensive personal defense. Santa Fe College has partnered with Alachua County Sheriff’s Office in frequent training classes. These funds will cover the cost of one instructor to participate and train for one year of classes. Funds will also be used for Safe Santa Fe Initiatives. This program began in late 2011 and was implemented to reinforce actual safety and the perception of a safe college and effective learning environment. Safe Santa Fe recently started CampusWatch training for SF College staff, personal defense orientation training, public messaging, surveillance and equipment enhancements, and a partnership with Student Government, Student Senate, and veterans to name a few. The amount of funds requested from the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant program is $4,500, with no matching funds from Santa Fe College. Duration of this project is October 1, 2012, through September 30, 2013. Operating budget impact: None Board Action Requested:

Approval of grant. Upon legal review and approval, the president or his designee, Charles W. Clemons, Sr., Vice President for Development, is authorized to execute any agreements and related documents associated with this grant.

Addendum to Contract of Employment for Executive Director Willard C. Fagler, 408.1994, 11-12 Florida College System Risk Management Consortium Santa Fe College acts as fiscal agent for the Florida College System Risk Management Consortium (FCSRMC) and serves as the employer of assigned personnel. Pursuant to the Salary Schedule, the FCSRMC Operations Committee board approved on June 1, 2012, a recommendation for additional employment terms for the executive director as outlined in the Addendum to Contract of Employment for Executive Director. These additional terms were approved by the Council of Presidents on June 8, 2012. This addendum has been reviewed by the college General Counsel, Human Resources, and Vice President for Administrative Affairs and is recommended for approval. Board Action Requested: Approval of Addendum to Contract of Employment for Executive Director, which has

an effective date of July 1, 2012



Equitable Sharing Agreement and Certification with U.S. Department of Justice 408.1995, 11-12 and the U.S. Department of the Treasury - Use of Federally Forfeited Funds -- SF Police Department Approval of this agreement allows Santa Fe College to register with the Federal Department of Justice (DOJ) “equitable sharing” program. Once registered, the USDOJ allows SF to access funds totaling $7,352.29, which SF has been holding since 1999 in a separate account. These monies originally were provided to SF by a regional drug task force when the Santa Fe College Police Department served as part of that group. Recently, it was discovered that to utilize these funds, this agreement must be filed with the USDOJ. By federal law, these monies typically can only be used for new or innovative programs and will be available until expended. Once approved, it is anticipated that some of these monies may be used to assist the college in establishing a formal behavioral intervention team. Board Action Requested: Approval



Covenant of Purpose, Use, and Ownership -- United States Economic 408.1998, 11-12 Development Administration for the Perry Center The college received a $1,670,000 financial assistance award from the United States Economic Development Administration (EDA) for the construction of a 6,000 square foot laboratory and classroom addition at the Perry Center in Alachua. In lieu of granting a security interest in or first lien upon the property to EDA, which is prohibited by Florida law, EDA allowed the college to utilize a Covenant of Purpose, Use, and Ownership. The attached Covenant of Purpose, Use, and Ownership dated October 18, 2010, was approved at the October 2010 board meeting. At that time, the college utilized the legal description covering the entire parcel owned by the college. However, shortly thereafter, the EDA and the college agreed that it would be in the college’s best interests to utilize a revised site certificate with a legal description delimited to include only the 6,000 square foot expansion rather than the entire parcel (see attached Certificate as to Project Site, Rights-Of-Way and Easements with legal description dated July 7, 2010). This revision greatly benefits the college by granting EDA rights only to the 6,000 square foot expansion rather than the entire center property. Accordingly, the attorney for the EDA recommended that the board authorize the college to substitute the legal description associated with the revised site certificate for the original legal description in the Covenant. Board Action Requested: Ratification of Covenant of Purpose, Use, and Ownership dated October 10, 2010, and

authorization and direction to substitute the legal description dated July 7, 2011, set forth in the attached Certificate as to Project Site, Rights-Of-Way and Easements



Mutual Nondisclosure Agreement with DubMeNow, Inc. 408.1996, 11-12 This is a mutual nondisclosure agreement between DubMeNow, Inc., and Santa Fe College with regard to the exchange of certain business and technical information in connection with the AT&T Campus Guide service. This agreement gives the college access to the technical specifications for integrating Campus Guide with college systems. Campus Guide is a suite of mobile applications for accessing student and class information. The agreement provides that, within the parameters of Florida law, each party shall keep confidential any information disclosed previously or in the future to one party by the other party, either directly or indirectly in writing, which is identified as confidential or proprietary and is otherwise exempt from disclosure under Florida law. The agreement also provides the recipient of confidential information shall not disclose any confidential information to third parties or to employees of the recipient, except those employees who are required to have the information for work related to the Campus Guide service. The recipient shall take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of any confidential information. The obligations of the recipient of disclosed confidential information under the agreement continue for a period terminating on the date three years from the date on which confidential information is last disclosed under this agreement. Board Action Requested: Approval



Standard Form Dispatcher Reimbursement Agreement 408.1997, 11-12 This agreement provides that the college shall advance certain costs and expenses for dispatcher training and certification, which is a new requirement under Florida law, in exchange for the reimbursement of such costs by the dispatcher should the dispatcher, by her own initiative, fail to complete the training program or leave employment with the college within 24 months after training completion. The dispatcher will reimburse the college for the total amount in accordance with a schedule, which will provide for a prorated forgiveness of the balance of the costs owed over time. Reimbursable expenses may include, but shall not be limited to, program-related fees and costs; travel expenses for the program, including mileage, lodging and food as permitted by Florida law; all costs associated with handling dispatcher’s regularly scheduled duties while in training, including salary and benefits for a replacement telecommunicator; and any other costs incurred by the college relating to the training of the dispatcher. Board Action Requested: Approval of the Dispatcher Reimbursement Agreement as a standard template to be

used for new dispatchers, and authorization for the president to execute completed standard agreements on behalf of the college without further review by the board



First Amendment to Agreement with ACORN for Clinical Experiences and 408.1999, 11-12 Third Amendment to Agreement with University of Florida for Student Clinical 408.2003, 11-12 Experiences - CODA Requirement for Dental Hygiene The Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) standards state that an educational institution offering a dental hygiene program must provide physical facilities and equipment which are sufficient to permit achievement of program objectives. If the institution finds it necessary to contract for use an existing facility for basic clinical education and/or distance education, then the following conditions must be met in addition to all existing Standards: if a contract exists, it must be a formal contract between the educational institution and the facility, with a two-year notice for termination of the contract stipulated to ensure that instruction will not be interrupted, and a contingency plan developed by the institution should the contract be terminated. Santa Fe College’s dental hygiene program utilizes the ACORN Clinic (“ACORN”) and the University of Florida College of Dentistry (“UFCD”) for basic clinical education. Santa Fe has agreements with each of these organizations; however, the agreements include termination clauses of less than two years. Accordingly, the college requests that the agreements with ACORN and UFCD be amended to include a two-year notice of termination to ensure that instruction will not be interrupted and to be in full compliance with CODA Standard 4-4 b. Board Action Requested: Approval

Memorandum of Understanding with Gainesville Chamber Orchestra 408.2002, 11-12 Santa Fe College and the Gainesville Chamber Orchestra (GCO) have had a close relationship for many years. The orchestra routinely rehearses on the SF campus, provides educational opportunities and reduced ticket prices for SF students, and collaborates with SF in marketing activities. While the relationship between SF and GCO was articulated for many years in a partnership with the Santa Fe Foundation, the relationship will be continued through a contract made directly with the college. The new contract will support collaboration with the SF Fine Arts Department, enhance the opportunities for SF students, and bring new performances by the GCO to the SF campus. Board Action Requested: Approval
