General Notes & Feedback (Change these to Action Items)
- Ensure that all future Agendas, ZOOM meeting URLs, and previous meeting minutes are sent out to Steering one week prior to next meeting.
- Link to minutes from previous meeting - one week prior to next meeting - giving committee members time to preview prior to meetings.
- Remind committee members to submit agenda items to the Chair to be added to the meeting agenda. How do we do this in an efficient way? Post a process doc and send with Minutes from previous meeting. Give members two weeks to submit an agenda item, so that the agenda (final) can be sent out to committee one week earler (as suggested above).
- Find out from Zoom if there is an 800 (Toll Free) number for Zoom (Patty knows there is, but find out which one it is and Highlight that on next meeting email.)
- Move all the CCCApply stats and adoption info to a page that can be referenced by all colleges and steering members and just keep on the Agenda / Minutes template - so this doesn't ahve to be a recurring agenda item, but anyone can visit those stats whenever they want.
- Look for other ways to streamline the meeting moving forward.
Also, committee should set some policies regarding members who miss more than 4 consecutive meetings in a row. There are several members that should be removed from the Committee if they miss one more meeting. Some kind of warning should be given or they will lose their seat.
- *Michelle Pena asked if Craig Hayward - current/previous Steering member from Irvine Valley, retired from IVC and is now with Kern County (Bakersfield?). She wants to have his seat moved to that college so he can continue to sit on committee.

New Change Requests
New Change Requests - Pending review during March 7 meeting.
Comments:
There's a bug in the Country Codes (No listing for United Kingdom - have Tyler double check the ISO 3166. Ensure the country codes are listed within the data dictionary or reference in a link in an Appendix.
Deferred the Preferred Name issue. Work on proposed language changes and decide at April meeting.
Deferred the "Special Character restrictions in the Username field until AWS is consulted and based on what they can provide us, determine if we make a technical change or requirements change to restrict characters other than @ and period from the Username field.
Deferred the Previous Name issue and redesign placement of the "I have no first name...et al. to adjacent to the input field. (However, based on responsive design UI, this may be moot point, the responsive design will resize the page anyway. Perhaps a better design experience is needed altogether.).
Deferred the International App changes to the IA sub-committee. These need to be reviewed prior to code freeze for the September release.
Title IX Survey data should be incorporated in to the Report Center (Phase I) then build the Title IX survey questions into an "Opt in" question block in the new version of CCCApply.
Add rest of notes here.
