********************************SCHOLARSHIPS / COLLEGE************************************

SENIORS: This is reminder that TOMORROW, May 1 is the deadline to submit intent to enroll declarations for any CSU or UC school. With limiting enrollments occurring at many of the campuses, it is important that students do not miss this deadline. I know for SDSU, it will not be forgiven unless there is a true emergency situation. (Kaine)

NEED A FUN AND INTERESTING ELECTIVE NEXT YEAR? Take a Southwestern College Class here on campus. Southwestern will be offering Art 104, an Art History Course and AJ 111, administration of justice next Fall! If you are interested, please see your counselor ASAP! Thank You! (Gerlack)

FACULTY SECTION

PLC TIDBIT OF THE DAY: Measuring student performance is not just about collecting data. Measurement—or assessment—should make difference. Assessments that make a difference are used for the purpose for which they were designed, and their results are focused at the appropriate level for improvement action. The overall assessment program should be balanced, providing well-designed, multiple assessment strategies and ongoing staff development to ensure a high probability that results will increase educational effectiveness.
