  17. EARTH SCIENCE All told, Earth Science received low-ish ratings in four categories Consider each of the following four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount

  18. EARTH SCIENCE Consider each one Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount

  19. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount

  20. EARTH SCIENCE Unduplicated headcount

  21. EARTH SCIENCE Unduplicated headcount Notice the following two scores: 6A1 Annual enrollment - Unduplicated headcount: 1 6A2 Annual enrollment - Duplicated headcount: 4 Notice the following score: 6B1 Student FTE Annualized: 4

  22. EARTH SCIENCE Unduplicated headcount In our April 1stmeeting about Earth Science and PPP No one could explain how or why Earth Science should rate a 4 in unduplicated headcount and a 1 in duplicated headcount. All including Derek agreed this category wasn t relevant to the Earth Science department. In a PA&I meeting with Kathryn Hoppe and Katy Shaw, Barbara Johnson said this doesn t make sense for ranking a department.

  23. EARTH SCIENCE Unduplicated headcount Why did Earth Science need a meeting with Barbara Johnson? Earth Science students: 49% female, 82% male Over the last ten years: Earth Science has averaged a 60% fill rate. In order for this to be true: There could never have been a full class in Earth Science Prior to 2012, the average would have been below 50%

  24. EARTH SCIENCE Unduplicated headcount Results of PA&I meeting: 2004-2005: Annualized FTE = 43.73, Unduplicated headcount = 376 2014-2015: Annualized FTE = 75.00, Unduplicated headcount = 647 Growth of 72% (which is 5.6% per year) Average fill rate = 89.26% (average over last three years)

  25. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Duplicated headcount

  26. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments

  27. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments (Also known as 5C2: progress through course sequence ) There is no course sequence We offer one 200-level class per year Not every year Enrollment is lower than 100-level classes

  28. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments What is the program? What is the other department? The program is general education The other department is the AA degree Green River does not monitor or assess the other department

  29. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments (3 - interdependency) Roughly 650 students take 100-level Earth Science each year Almost all of them are filling a gen-ed requirement So 650 gen ed students are dependent on Earth Science each year Students continue by (a) taking another class, or (b) moving on

  30. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments In March 29 Mid-Cycle Accreditation Review meeting Accreditors said departments like Earth Science are not programs. The program is General Education. Gen Ed is the department that places demand on Earth Science. Earth Science contributes roughly 750 students to Gen Ed.

  31. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program Demand from other departments (3 - interdependency) Of 1328 courses offered at Green River... Geology 101 is #43 out of 1328. (Top 3.2%) Oceanography 101 is #129. (Top 10%) Geology 106 is a NEW CLASS and it is #177 (Top 14%)

  32. EARTH SCIENCE Continuation through program (5C2) Demand from other departments (3) In our April 1stmeeting about Earth Science and PPP All including Derek agreed 5C2 progression through the course sequence wasn t relevant to the Earth Science department. Earth Science classes are among highest in demand on campus. Roughly 650 students are dependent on them for Gen Ed.

  33. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount

  34. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments

  35. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments general education students Do we still want students to get an AA degree? Do we want students in business and liberal arts to transfer? Do we still want entry-level lab science classes?

  36. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Time of day: Classes run from 8:00 AM to 9:30 PM We could try to add more. (Fill rates would decline.) cc Mode of delivery: Most F2F, some hybrid, some online We could teach more online. (Student success would decline.)

  37. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access We could also reduce the size of the Earth Science department. Access to science classes would decline. Faculty workload may decline. Students would suffer.

  38. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Entry Level Lab Science classes What science classes do general education students take? Earth Science Astro 101 Phys 110 Bio 101

  39. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Entry Level Lab Science classes Other departments do not have the capacity to absorb all of the Earth Science students. (and if they did what would be the point?) Earth Science Astro 101 Phys 110 Bio 101

  40. EARTH SCIENCE Can we replace Earth Science classes with other science classes? Not really. High needs 1.3 FTE classes are out of the question. Other entry-level classes don t make sense. Students don t have math 141. They complain about math already. Building a new lab is expensive. There is nothing to gain. Earth Science offers 50% of the diversity of classes in introductory science.

  41. EARTH SCIENCE Access Can we increase access to Earth Science classes? Increase online offerings? (Done, and doing more.) Add fun lab-free math-free class? (Done, and doing more.) Increase face to face offerings? (This requires instructors ) Interdependency of staffing: GRC can t consider Earth Science in isolation from other departments.

  42. EARTH SCIENCE And what about COST? How do science departments compare in terms of REVENUE and COST? Department LIFE (AP/BIO) CHEMISTRY PHYS/ASTRO EARTH SCI Total revenue $1,575,765.96 $1,050,698.01 $890,564.28 $383,035.95 Total cost $826,762.91 $534,415.51 $465,092.07 $185,822.55 Revenue/cost 191% 197% 191% 206%

  43. EARTH SCIENCE And what about COST? REVENUE and COST: section by section Revenue minus cost per year per section Sections "Profit" Total revenue Total cost LIFE (AP/BIO) $1,575,765.96 $826,762.91 $749,003.05 141 CHEMISTRY $1,050,698.01 $534,415.51 $516,282.50 PHYS/ASTRO $890,564.28 $465,092.07 $425,472.21 EARTH SCI $383,035.95 $185,822.55 $197,213.40 $5300 $6500 $5600 $6800 80 76 29

  44. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount

  45. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments Unduplicated headcount irrelevant (and data is wrong)

  46. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program Demand from other departments huge demand from the GEN ED Unduplicated headcount irrelevant (and data is wrong)

  47. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Continuation through program irrelevant except for geology majors Demand from other departments huge demand from the GEN ED Unduplicated headcount irrelevant (and data is wrong)

  48. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Earth Science provides crucial access to an AA degree Continuation through program irrelevant except for geology majors Demand from other departments huge demand from the GEN ED Unduplicated headcount irrelevant (and data is wrong)

  49. EARTH SCIENCE The Earth Science department had low ratings in only four categories Access Earth Science provides crucial access to an AA degree Continuation through program irrelevant except for geology majors Demand from other departments huge demand from the GEN ED Unduplicated headcount irrelevant (and data is wrong) REVENUE AND COST: The most efficient department in the science division is Earth Science.

  50. EARTH SCIENCE 650 students/year 75 annualized FTE $200,000 per year profit $6800 deficit reduction per class If we lose it, we have no way to replace it.
