  6. Open Forum Discussion • Load balancing across the divisions • Graduation rates across the college and among peer institutions and the relationship of graduate rates to organizational structure • Why change something when it’s working? • How much will be saved by reducing the number of divisions? • Extra support required for at-risk students: Developmental Studies, counseling, • Will positions be eliminated and who makes the decisions?

  7. Additional Considerations • Program alignment • College budget • Individual thinking
