There are some of the committees that are looking for new things to do, but every time they come up with new ideas, they get shot down. There are a lot of good ideas that won't cost a lot of money, I think we need to  explore more of these options. 1 1
I see numerous students scheduled to work and they spend the time roaming the hallways and chatting, instead of working their assigned shifts. 1 1
Instill in students professionalism. This is college- attendance relate at college level. Be sure to have a good grasp of English. Even though RRCC has an open-door policy, it is still important to also expect excellence from students. 1 1
Improve the web registration site CCCWEB. Online registration function is inconsistent. It needs to work well all the time. 1 1
In general efforts should focus on the physical plant. Especially copiers. 1 1
RRCC needs to work against the sense that expectations are low since it is a Community College. In short we need to stop giving the students a break. I feel few students are really put to task because many feel it is a last chance kind of college and don't want to be too hard on them. 1 1
Graduating only those students who demonstrate proficiency in certain areas. 1 1
Agency on email list- available classes sent to depts. 5 5
