<b>the person has a willingness/capacity to work as a liaison</b> between college and SBCTC. For that reason, multiple folks signing up from one college is acceptable and welcome. For instance, from TCC, 4 folks with different positions signed up as they work

built into it and SBCTC is tasked to monitor the progress and submit a legislative report every year. At this point, the question is how to implement this, not whether to opt in or out.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;margin-top:10.0pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo3;vertical-align:baseline">

as one of many course attributes (such as time, date, availability, location, format, delivery, funding model, etc.) This is one of many conditions students will use, albeit an important one, to make more informed choices. Interestingly, I’ve received feedback
from several faculty members at ctcLink colleges that the policy has provided leverage in renegotiating with publishers to bring the cost of materials within the low cost threshold. <o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Hi Boyoung, <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Would you please define the roles of the participants on their home campuses? Should the participants actually be in a position where they would assign the label of OER/Low cost to individual classes in the
college schedule? Should they be in a position to write the college policy?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">On my campus, I’ve been told that choosing to use the label designation of OER/Low Cost is an all or nothing proposition for colleges. In other words, if colleges choose to use that designation for their OER/Low
Cost classes, all the rest of the classes will be labeled in the class schedule as “high cost.” The argument against adopting this policy is that so few classes will initially have the OER/Low Cost label the college will look bad. Can you please comment?
If this is true, I can understand why my college might be reluctant to adopt a policy for OER/Low Cost labeling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
