                            Real-time initiatives
                            Programs and services often learn or take-on new initiatives lead by the institution or as a result of opportunities at the state level mid year after the unit planning process. Funding a miscellaneous reserve budget would allow for programs to request funds throughout the academic year to effectively implement initiatives outside of the unit planning cycle.

                            Welcome Center Redesign
                            Redesigning the Welcome Center to support prospect student and family engagement will create a student centric enrollment environment. The Center is not set up to meet with students and families to provide information and assistance when there is interest in attending Butte College. We would like to reconfigure workstations to create open space to create a private lounge area where we would show them video highlights of programs and services,  and provide application and registration assistance.
