Students can air concerns

If students, faculty or staff have a problem, complaint, concern or compliment about the college, there are several ways for them to be heard.

Listening Boxes are located across campus to take anonymous suggestions, and a program called Campus Conversations puts the student in a one-on-one environment with members of the President's Team.

The Listening Boxes are located in the Welcome Center, cafeteria, SPAR office, T-Building foyer and the C-Building foyer, and are monitored by North Lake's administration. Questions, suggestions, and observations are forwarded to the appropriate administrator for an answer. And each answer is posted on the college's Web page.

The most recent Listening Box concerns were removed Dec. 18 and can be viewed at www.northlakecollege.edu/about/listeningbox.html.

Campus Conversations begins Feb. 1 outside the cafeteria at 2:30 p.m., with North Lake President, Dr. Herlinda Glasscock.

Others in February include Paul Kelemen at 10 a.m., on Wednesday, Feb. 7; Candace Castillo at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 15; and Rene Castilla at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 21.

All Campus Conversations are held at a table in front of the lunchroom, down from the bookstore.
