Subject: Revised Faculty Salary Schedule
Many of you have asked questions about the specifics of the Salary Schedule that was adopted by the Trustees of The California State University and Colleges at their last meeting. Attached is a copy of the entire agenda item, with the three options considered and the rationale for each. The Board adopted "Option III." Although the Board has adopted this more flexible salary structure, it cannot be implemented until it is certified by the Department of Finance.

Item Agenda
January 27-28, 1981
Committe On Faculty and Staff Affairs Proposal for a Revised Faculty Salary Schedule
At its September meeting the Trustees' Committee on Faculty and Staff Affairs was presented a staff-developed proposal for a revision of the faculty salary schedule. At that time the Committee voted to postpone any discussion of the proposal so that there could be extensive consultation with the faculty. The Committee requested that there be an information item on faculty salaries at the November meeting and an action item at the January 1981 meeting. Subsequently, on recommendation of staff who were in the midst of consultation with the faculty, the Committee postponed the information item until its December meeting.
At that meeting there was an extended discussion of all aspects of the proposal. There was also an opportunity for the various groups which represent the faculty to express their views directly to the Trustees. As a result of this the Committee requested the staff to return in January with revised proposals which clearly differentiated between the problem of meeting the competition in the marketplace and the problem of rewarding merit. This has been done although a total separation is not possible since the competition in the marketplace is for meritorious and fully qualified faculty. The staff was also directed to determine the preferences of the groups representing the faculty and present these to the Committee in summary form.
The Committee also requested additional information and data showing why there was difficulty in filling a large number of tenure-track vacancies in the Fall of 1980. Staff has made another study the results of which are presented as Attachment 4. This study reveals that lack of competitive salary is the major factor in all disciplines and is virtually a universal factor in disciplines where the national competition for faculty is the most intense.
In response to these directions the staff presents three options for consideration. The first option is designed to make the CSUC more competitive in the marketplace. The second option is designed solely for the reward of merit, while the third option is designed both to reward merit and to meet the competition in the marketplace. Prior to the meeting staff will confer with the representatives of the faculty both to determine their reactions to the three options presented and to solicit alternative suggestions. The results will be presented in summary form.
Option I: Meeting Competition in the Marketplace
The first option is to redesign the faculty salary schedule to meet the competition of the marketplace. The CSUC faces problems both in attracting qualified faculty and in retaining highly qualified faculty. While these problems are the greatest in certain disciplines, there are some hiring and retention problems in a number of disciplines, especially if affirmative action is involved. In both instances the problem arises from the limited range of salary currently permitted for the three professorial ranks. This range limit causes the most difficulty at the rank of assistant professor.
Attachment 1 shows a revised salary schedule designed to correct the problem. The steps are in 5% gradations as in the present schedule. The number of steps has been increased from five to eight for associate professor and full professor and from five to ten for assistant professor. If required to provide competitive salaries, new appointments may be made above the first step of the rank including, if necessary, steps in the upper range. This poses no new fiscal burden, since at present new appointments are made at the level necessary to meet competitive salaries.
Presentation By
Robert E. Tyndall, Acting Vice Chancellor Faculty and Staff Affairs
At its December meeting the Committee on Faculty and Staff Affairs had an extensive discussion of the proposal for revisions in the faculty salary schedule. Based on these discussions and on continuing discussions with the representatives of the faculty, revised alternative proposals will be presented as an action item.
Option II: Rewarding Faculty for Meritorious Performance
The second option is to revise the salary schedule to provide a more flexible merit reward system for all tenure-track faculty in the CSUC. For instance, 4,000 out of 10,400 tenure-track faculty are presently professor, step 5. Attachment 2 presents a revised salary schedule designed to provide the maximum opportunity for merit rewards. The existing salary schedule is extended upward in the three professorial ranks and the number of steps is increased in each rank by the use of steps based on 2?% increments.
In order to provide a flexible reward system for the recognition of merit, after an annual merit review, those found eligible could be awarded either one, two or three salary steps (2?%, 5% or 7?%). The upward extension of each rank would make those presently at top step eligible for continuing merit review and step increases. Merit reviews would be conducted according to procedures adopted by each campus with the provision that the review must involve all present Trustee criteria for RTP and must include peer and administrative review.
Option III: Meeting the Competition of the Marketplace and Rewarding Merit
The third model shown in Attachment 3 offers the flexibility to set salaries to meet the competition of the marketplace and also to allow for the reward of merit. An additional feature is that the 5% step structure of the present salary schedule is preserved with 2?% steps introduced only in the upward extensions of existing ranges. Upward motion would be possible with one step (5%) for the first five steps and one or two steps (2?% and 5%) for the newly added steps.
Movement in the lower steps would be as it is at present. Movement into the upper steps would require either a merit review as set forth in Option II or the establishment that the move was necessary to respond to competitive salary pressures. Merit review would be performed as under Option II.
Distinguished Professorships
It is common for universities to select a few of their faculty for designation as distinguished professors and to provide some additional reward for those so designated. If a revised salary schedule were to be implemented, then consideration should be given to the advisability of adding a few steps above the top of the range of professor. These additional steps would be designated Distinguished Professor and would be used under policy adopted by the Trustees for that purpose. In view of the nature of the CSUC, these appointments would be reserved for those truly distinguished in their field with special attention given to their ability to inspire students.
It has already been noted that the separation between marketplace and merit is in part artificial. The competition in hiring is to find the fully qualified faculty necessary to preserve the excellence of our programs. The CSUC must be able to attract that variety of faculty necessary including women and minorities. The same is true of the increasingly serious problem of retention. The problem is to retain the best who, in turn, are the most sought after by other institutions. Thus problems which at first seem to be solely problems of the marketplace always involve decisions based on merit as well.
A fourth or less of our existing tenure-track faculty are in fields subject to this keen competition in the marketplace. Any salary schedule revision which made the situation in the marketplace a precondition for existing faculty to be considered for advancement to the newly added steps would be out of the reach of most of the faculty. This would have an adverse affect on the morale of these faculty and would certainly give them tangible evidence that they were of less value to the CSUC however well they might serve.
The staff recommends Option III as combining the changes necessary to meet the competition of the marketplace while including a modest program for the reward of merit. Implementation of this option would obviate the necessity of attempting to discriminate between merit and marketplace, a desirability since all hiring and retention decisions must involve consideration of faculty quality.
The staff also recommends the inclusion of three more steps of 2?% above the top of professor reserved for distinguished professors. The inclusion of distinguished professor is a minor addition in terms of cost or complexity, but a major addition to the ability of the CSUC to attract or hold truly outstanding individuals.
Option III has been carefully designed to respond to faculty advice received through the consultative process. Elements of the original proposal which received the most criticism have been modified.
Cost of Revising the Faculty Salary Schedule
An essential element of any new proposal must be an estimate of its cost. Implementation of the new salary schedule would involve two elements of cost. The first would be the cost of placing those newly hired on advanced steps. This cost occurs at present whenever a new faculty member is placed at advanced step, at advanced rank, or both. Funding is provided from existing funds, often from turnover savings from faculty who have retired or resigned. The placement of newly hired faculty on any step of the scale occurs at present and is handled within existing funds. The implementation of any option would not change the situation or add to any costs for newly hired faculty.
The movement of existing faculty into the newly added steps would require additional funding. In the attachments note that each rank is divided into a lower range and an upper range, the upper range being the newly added steps for the rank. Movement of the existing faculty into the upper range or to additional steps in the upper range would be limited to funding budgeted specifically for that purpose. For the first year of Option III it is recommended that $1,600,000 be requested for the purpose of advancing existing faculty to, or within, the upper range. Through this separate funding, movement into the upper range would be subject to controls by the same technique currently used to control the rate of promotion of the faculty. The funding requested would provide assistance in retaining present faculty subject to recruitment by other institutions and would also make possible the rewarding of merit for others in the faculty.
The staff recommends adoption of the following resolution:
Resolved, By the Board of Trustees of The California State University and Colleges, that the revision of the faculty salary schedule presented as Option III be adopted in principle; and be it further
Resolved, that the Trustees' request for salary funds for 1981-82 be augmented to request $1,600,000 for the implementation of the revised faculty salary schedule.

Praise be to Allaah, I came from a religiously-committed family and I am also religiously-committed, but now I am living in a state of fear because I am soon to get married to a young man who is also respectable. The reason is that I think my hymen may have been broken – without committing any immoral action, Allaah forbid. Should I tell him about that (although it will be difficult for me) or should I leave it until the wedding night and not tell him? I do not know what to do, please advise me. May Allaah reward you with good.
So long as you are chaste and have not committed any immoral action – praise be to Allaah – then you do not have to tell him, and you should not worry about that. The hymen may be broken due to jumping, insertion of fingers, heavy menses, lengthy spinsterhood and other reasons that the fuqaha' have mentioned.
See: al-Mabsoot (5/8), Kashshaaf al-Qinaa' (5/47) and al-Fataawa al-Kubra (3/88)
The husband should think well of his wife if he finds out that she is not a virgin. As we have mentioned, virginity may be lost due to causes other than immoral actions. If we assume that he asks you, you can answer him in a way that will ward off doubt from his mind. Rest assured that Allaah will support His believing slave and help him. See also question no. 40278.
The Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas was asked: A Muslim woman had an accident when she was small in which her hymen was broken. She has got married but the marriage has not yet been consummated. In another case, a woman suffered the same accident, and now religiously-committed brothers are coming to propose marriage to her. They are both confused about their situation. Which is better – should the married woman tell her husband before consummation of the marriage or should she keep quiet? And should the one who is not married yet go ahead with it, lest it become known and people think badly of her? This happened when she was small and was not yet accountable. Or is this regarded as deceit and cheating? Should she tell those who come to propose or not, for the sake of getting married?
They replied: there is no shar'i reason why she should not conceal it, then if he asks her after consummation of the marriage, she can tell him the truth. End quote from Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah (19/5)
We ask Allaah to help you and guide you.
And Allaah knows best.

NEWARK, N.J. – Gregory Campbell scored twice in a three-goal first period and the Boston Bruins regained first place in the Northeast Division with a 5-4 victory over the reeling New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night.
In winning for the fifth time in six games, the Bruins scored three times against Martin Brodeur in the opening 8:12, took a four-goal lead and then held on. Daniel Paille and Campbell capped the outburst with short-handed goals in a 3:21 span.
Zdeno Chara and Tyler Seguin also scored and backup goaltender Anton Khudobin made 24 saves as the Bruins (56 points) moved a point ahead of the Montreal Canadiens with nine games to play in the lockout-shortened season.
Patrik Elias, Travis Zajac, Andy Greene and Matt D'Agostini scored for New Jersey, which has lost eight straight (0-4-4) in seeing its playoff hopes fade. The slide is its longest since 1985-86.
Rangers 3, Maple Leafs 2, SO
NEW YORK (AP)—Mats Zuccarello scored the lone goal in the shootout, and the York Rangers overcame another two-goal performance by Toronto's Phil Kessel.
The Rangers moved back into seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
Zuccarello, called out before the game by Rangers coach John Tortorella to score more, connected in the second round of the tiebreaker against James Reimer. Henrik Lundqvist turned aside all three Toronto shooters, and the Rangers (20-16-4) moved into a flat-footed tie with the New York Islanders, who had claimed seventh on Tuesday.
The area rivals will meet Saturday on Long Island.
The Ottawa Senators also are even with the Rangers and Islanders with 44 points at the bottom of the East race. Toronto has 49 points.
Avalanche 4, Ducks 1
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP)—Matt Duchene had a goal and an assist, and the NHL-worst Avalanche prevented Anaheim from clinching a playoff spot.
Two days after ripping his teammates' work ethic and focus, Jean-Sebastien Giguere made 21 saves in his first win in nearly two months for Colorado, which snapped a five-game skid.
The Avs responded to their veteran goalie's criticism with their most impressive victory in a month, scoring three goals in the second period of just their third road win all season to snap a 14-game winless streak away from Denver.
Teemu Selanne scored his 674th career goal for the weary Pacific Division leaders, who had won five of seven. Anaheim could have finalized its post-season plans, but Jonas Hiller stopped just 12 of 16 shots behind a porous Ducks defence.
Coyotes 3, Oilers 1
EDMONTON, Alberta (AP)—David Moss and Boyd Gordon each had a goal and an assist as the Coyotes stayed firmly in the playoff picture.
Antoine Vermette also scored for the Coyotes, 5-1-2 in their last eight games. They sit in ninth place in the Western Conference, one point back of the idle Detroit Red Wings for the final playoff berth.
Nail Yakupov responded for the Oilers, who are sliding out of contention, having lost four in a row. They trail Detroit by four points.
Phoenix and Edmonton each have eight games remaining.
Canucks 4, Flames 1
CALGARY, Alberta (AP)—Roberto Luongo, in a surprise start, made 40 saves and Maxim Lapierre scored the go-ahead goal.
Andrew Ebbett centred a pass that Lapierre swatted behind Miikka Kiprusoff from the top of the crease, breaking a 1-1 tie with 9:23 left in regulation.
Up until that goal, most of the play in the third period was in Vancouver's end, where Luongo was sharp, turning aside dangerous chance after chance.
Calgary outshot the Canucks 41-29, including 18-9 in the final 20 minutes.
Alex Burrows, Mason Raymond and Daniel Sedin also scored for Vancouver, winner of nine of its last 12. The Canucks, who began a five-game road trip, opened a six-point lead atop the Northwest Division over Minnesota.
Curtis Glencross with his team-leading 15th had the lone goal for Calgary, which has lost six of its last seven.

Understanding UnityJustin Smith
1 Cor.1.10 I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind, united in thought and purpose.
This may be a slight stretch, possibly a far stretch, but as I read through 1 Cor. 1, I immediately thought about one of my latest addictions, "The Sing Off". The premise of The Sing Off is that acapella groups compete for a recording contract and a cash prize. Each group is comprised of a rhythm section, a human beat box and bass "player", a lead vocalist and 3-12 background vocals. Again, the smallest group is 5 and the largest is 15, and their job is to make music with no "music". There are no instruments, no click, no tracks, just a mic and their voice, and their job is to make it sound as beautiful and full as possible. To accomplish this goal they have to be in perfect synchronization, both in tempo and in pitch, each person doing their part. If one goes off they all sound bad. If one decides to deviate they will all be sent home. These individuals are united by one purpose, the music, for one goal, the money. There was dissension in the church at Corinth as members solidified allegiances and loyalty to particular church leaders. Arguing and division arose as these factions were created. Their purpose was divided, their goals were different, and without change their demise was quickly approaching. Paul appealed to them under one authority, that of Jesus Christ, to one vision- harmony, and for one purpose- to preach the good news. Without a common purpose, vision, and goal, uniting people, -- fleshly, self-centered, prideful people like me -- is inconceivable, thus for unity to happen each person must surrender for the sake of the greater good.
It's interesting that both of God's greatest directives, accepting the Gospel and loving others in unity, take death. As Jesus gave everything, to the point of death, he asks us to do the same, give everything to the point of death – death of our pride, our desires, our ways, and our rights. Unity with God was impossible without a death, Jesus' perfect sacrifice, and unity with people is impossible without death, of myself. Is unity easy, by no means! So what can assist me in accomplishing unity?
- Accepting and pursuing One authority -- Jesus
- Accepting and pursuing One vision – Harmony
- Accepting and pursuing One purpose – To preach the Good News
Lord, thank you for dying that I might be united in relationship with you. Please enable me to surrender to this calling to die to myself that I might stand in unity with those you have blessed me with. May we be united that you might receive great glory.

Not all parents need to be accused of nurturing their children badly, since there are still some to be found who lead honest livesbut there are still far too few who may be accused of spending too much time with their children when they are still young and tender, or who watch and care for them, and try to instill honesty in them together with their mothers milk. Instead, from the very beginning the whole care is given over to slave women or even female Hottentots [Khoikhoi], and the parents are content as long as the children suffer no pain, or other unpleasantness that could hurt them, or learn obviously bad manners.
Just think to yourself what good such an Aja, as these caregivers are called, could do for a young child, leading a heathen life, given over to lust and other sinful desires, carrying on indecent and wanton conversations with others like herself in the presence of the child, and not caring for anything except that the child have enough to eat and drink, clothes, and lack no other incidentals, so that the child will not cry and fuss a lot, and she will not receive a harsh reprimand. Thus the child will be brought up in pleasure and happiness, even though the foundation for a real fear of God will be completely neglected. This is a circumstance that cannot be lamented too highly, and should find disapprobation among all righteous Christians. . . .
It cannot be denied that such an Aja does indeed know how to get on with the child skillfully enough, and is a faithful caregiver when it comes to anything necessary for bodily health. No one would disagree either, that they are good language teachers, and that their mother tongue, or at least the Portuguese, which is commonly used throughout the East Indies, and may be considered a main language in these lands, flows into the children at the same time as mothers milk [presumably they were wet nurses as well]. Still, with all these skills, in my opinion they still lack that which is most essential and important to bringing up children.
For, not considering the fact that they speak very bad and broken German, or rather, Dutch, and therefore are not able to teach the child this language, so that in the beginning all the children here speak German very badly, almost like the French people [Huguenots who had fled religious persecution in France] who are just beginning to learn the languagethere is an even greater impediment that prevents these caregivers from steering the children towards true godliness, which should be learned above all else: the Ajas themselves still lead heathen lives, and therefore hardly know even by name what godliness is or means.

Two injured in Wallace Road motorcycle crash
DAYTON — Two people were injured as the result of a serious motorcycle crash about 7 p.m. Saturday south of Dayton in the 16250 block of Wallace Road, according to Yamhill Communications Agency radio traffic.
One victim reportedly sustained a broken leg. Another victim was unconscious but breathing. A Life Flight helicopter was requested. A second helicopter was also requested, but the estimated time of arrival was about 40 minutes from Longview, Wash., so it was decided to transport the patient by ambulance to Salem Hospital.
Wallace Road was closed in the area of Unionvale and Grand Island /Fairview roads while the crash was investigaged and the scene was cleared.
Details of the crash and names of the victims were not immediately available.

Gent - Wevelgem 2012
March 25, 2012, Deinze, BEL, Road - WorldTour
Gent-Wevelgem 2012
Gent-Wevelgem 2012 will be the 74th staging of the race, which is renowned in cycling circles as the spring classic that best suits the sprinters. This is underlined by its fast and flat finish, but riders must also not underestimate the unpredictable weather conditions or the climbs in the early and middle sections of the race.
As with the Tour of Flanders, Belgian riders have dominated the history of the race. Defending champion Tom Boonen will be looking to make it to the start line healthy and launch a successful bid for a third title, having also won here in 2004. One of his main rivals could be world champion Mark Cavendish, who earlier in the year revealed to Cyclingnews that victory this race is one of two remaining targets that he set out to achieve at the start of his career. Cavendish's Team Sky could hold plenty of aces on the day, with Bernie Eisel and Edvald Boasson Hagen also former winners.

Mild rashes can be treated at home, and mostly cause discomfort from itching, burning, or blistering. Severe, widespread rashes require medical treatment.

Groups of People: non-followers of Jesus
· A non-follower is by definition someone who has not given his/her life to follow Jesus.
Group 1: The Antagonist: will negate any kind of possibility of God to fit his/her own framework of possibilities.
Group 2: The Spiritualist: believes in every kind of supernatural possibility – ghosts, energy, reincarnation, etc.
Group 3: The Disinterested: never really thought about God and spends a lot of time trying not to think about mortality, God, or the meaning of life.
Group 4: The Moralist: believes that as long as they are good and people don't actively hurt one another then God is irrelevant (if He/She exists then they will be good enough, and if not, then the world is a good place).

Since the monthly customizing challange is focusing on playsets this month and next, it was suggested we extend the group project to any character that appeared in the Clone Wars TV series. Since we've seen so many clones, lets try to avoid doing them and focus on other characters that havn't been done to death. There are some cool customs in the creatures that Ventress had to fight in the arena or some of the aliens in the crowd sequence where Anakin tracks down Padme. Maybe those weird looking tribal aliens from vol 2. A kick as Durge would be cool or his IG lancer droids. You can make modern, vintage or cartoon versions of any character that appeared in the miniseries except clones. No alternate costumes this time around. The two main ones suggested are Snowbunny Padme and Yoda. The deadline for this is February 28th.
Jedi in clone gear is ok as long as that jedi wore that outfit in the tv series. 12" is always ok. Technically, you should be making the item during the group project and not something already made. Work in progress pictures are highly encouraged.
Very nice wolfman jedi CM. Do you have a reference picture for him? I'll have to dig one up.It looks like a good start to the nelvaan warrior. The face needs some work to make him look more mole-like. Was that hair already on the base figure? I think he is a little bit too muscular for these guys. He needs a pot belly.

In 2006, Vanity Fair summarized how the Bush administration orchestrated a series of thinly disguised propaganda moves to justify the invasion of Iraq:
The War They Wanted, the Lies They Needed
The Bush administration invaded Iraq claiming Saddam Hussein had tried to buy yellowcake uranium in Niger. As much of Washington knew, and the world soon learned, the charge was false. Worse, it appears to have been the cornerstone of a highly successful "black propaganda" campaign with links to the White House.
There were innuendos, Congressional committee "testimonies," off-the-record briefings, "experts" on TV, Italian connections and enough subterfuge to justify a decent Hollywood movie.
But most of all, there were journalists writing and talking about it everywhere. Without the benefit of fact checking. As "the world soon learned," the U.S. went on to invade Iraq and, regardless of what you think about that decision, the cost in human lives and treasury has been devastating.
What color is Android?
What, you may ask, does this have to do with Android? Despite the smartphone wars everybody's talking about, no lives are at stake and nobody's going to thermonuclear war over Android.
Here's how the Android yellowcake was sold:
Amazon told us the Kindle Fire was their best selling product on Black Friday and now some early Q4 numbers have arrived. A new report from iSuppli estimates that Amazon will ship 3.9 million units before the end of the year and Digitimes says that number could climb to as high as 5 million.
In a "Report" entitled, "Amazon selling 2,000 Kindle Fires every hour" the mainstream MSNBC.com syndicated a GeekWire.com piece:
Looks like Amazon.com has a hit on its hands, even before its new tablet computer is officially released to consumers.
The Seattle company is selling pre-orders for its new Kindle Fire tablets at a rate of 2,000 an hour, or more than 50,000 per day, according to website Cult of Android, which has gotten its hands on what it describes as internal Amazon inventory documents.
If the report is accurate, and the pace continues, Amazon will have sold 2.5 million Kindle Fires prior to the Nov. 15 launch — outpacing the first month of sales for either the iPad or the iPad 2, according to the site.
which referenced a website called CultofAndroid.com which referenced "leaked" documents:
Even the generally more responsible The Verge couldn't help itself repeat verbatim those Kindle Fire numbers. Numbers neither it nor any other publication had, because Amazon just doesn't bother reporting them:
Kindle Fire remains Amazon's best-selling item, million Kindle per week sales continue
Amazon just announced that it sold more than a million Kindle devices per week throughout December — that includes the Kindle, Kindle Touch, and Kindle Fire tablet. As usual for Amazon, no specific numbers were given, but the company says the Fire remains its best-selling and most-wished-for item, marking some 13 weeks that the Android-powered seven-inch tablet has held the top spot.
Are we there yet?
Indeed, if you read about the Kindle Fire around that time in any number of print or online publications, the unmistakable impression you'd get was: the Kindle Fire was selling in record numbers. So well in fact that same journalists would soon start telling Apple to come out with a 7″ tablet of its own or lose the iPad head-start, just like it "lost" its iPhone advantage.
And yet no journalist had any concrete evidence of the yellowcake: actual Android units sold. Not from Amazon, not from Samsung, not from HTC, not from Google…Nobody has actual Android unit numbers sold, quarter after quarter, in one of the biggest and most lucrative markets anywhere, which they're supposed to be covering. No journalist has had the gumption to ask Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos or Google CEO Larry Page, "Sir, have you no sha, err, sales numbers to give us?" And keep asking until Amazon and Samsung and HTC and Google tell us just how well they are doing. Where's the yellowcake?
I am, of course, not the only one on Twitter who objects to this charade of corporate secrecy in the name of openness:
Isn't it time honorable journalists asked Google, whose mobile operating system was created primarily to harvest users' private info, to report just how many Android units are actually sold every quarter, lest they be labeled yellow journalists carrying Google's water in a link-baiting game?

Apply Now!
To apply for financial aid, follow these steps:
Step 1: Apply for admission to LFCC.
You must ensure that you are enrolled in an eligible curriculum to receive financial aid. Eligible academic curriculums are degree and certificate programs that have been approved by the Department of Education and are available at the Admissions and Records Office.
While it is not a requirement for you to provide your Social Security Number (SSN) on the admissions application, it is a requirement that the College have your SSN in order to process your financial aid application. If you choose not to provide your SSN on your admissions application, the processing of your financial aid application will be delayed until the information is provided to the Admissions and Records Office.
Step 2: Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
You must complete this form to apply for both federal and state grants. You may complete the form online at the above link. List the LFCC school code (008659) on the FAFSA to ensure LFCC receives your results. You (and your parent, if applicable) are required to have a Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID, from the Department of Education. The FSA, made up of a username and password, allows you to access certain Department of Education websites. Your FSA is used to confirm your identity when accessing your financial aid information and electronically signing your federal student aid documents. More information about the FSA ID replacing the Personal Identification Number (PIN) is available here.
- A great resource for completing each question on the FAFSA is available at https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/sites/default/files/2018-19-completing-fafsa.pdf
- An easy step-by-step tutorial for help with the FAFSA is available at Seven Easy Steps to the FAFSA: A Student's Guide to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid tutorial
- An easy step-by-step tutorial on creating a FSA ID is available at How to Create an FSA ID
To ensure processing prior to the early registration payment deadline, submit your FAFSA by June 1st for the fall semester and November 1st for the spring semester. Applications will be accepted after those dates, but you should have other payment options in place in case we cannot complete your Financial Aid file review prior to the early registration payment deadline each semester.
Dependency Overrides
Students who are under the age of 24 and answer "No" to all the questions in Step 3 of the FAFSA are required to provide parent information on the application. If a student has extenuating circumstances that prevent him/her from providing parental information, it may be possible for the Financial Aid Office to consider a dependency override that allows the student to apply for financial aid without parental information. Students who feel that their circumstances warrant a dependency override should contact the Financial Aid Office to request an appointment. Each request is reviewed by the Director on a case-by-case basis.
Processing Time
Once you complete and submit your FAFSA form, it takes 5-7 business days for LFCC to receive your Student Aid Report (SAR) provided that our school code is on your application. The SAR is an exact record of the information you and/or your parents supplied on your FAFSA form. You should review your SAR to determine if there were any errors on your form or to update any information that FAFSA is requesting. This form does not need to be submitted to the Financial Aid Office. If your form has no errors and has not been selected for verification (the process where the Financial Aid Office must verify the information contained on your FAFSA form), your Financial Aid award should be posted within a few days of LFCC receiving your completed form. If you are selected for verification, your award cannot be posted until you submit all of the required documentation and the verification process is completed.
Step 3: Financial Aid Communications
The Financial Aid Office will review your SAR and let you know if you are eligible for financial aid. All award information is sent to your LFCC student e-mail account. If your SAR has been selected for verification, the LFCC Financial Aid Office will send an e-mail to your LFCC student e-mail account to ask for additional documents. It is your responsibility to check your LFCC student e-mail account for these notices. If you wish to continue to receive these notifications via postal mail, please contact the Financial Aid Office with this request by e-mail at fina…@lfcc.edu.
Step 4: Review your Financial Aid Awards
To review your financial aid awards online, log on to your My LFCC account and follow the instructions below:
- Click on VCCS SIS: Student Information System
- Click on Student Center
- Click on View Financial Aid
- Select the appropriate aid year. For example 2015 represents the 2015-2016 award year.
Your awards for the academic year should now appear. Notice that your awards for each term (fall and spring) are provided and are based on full-time enrollment.
If you are not enrolled in at least 12 credits, to view your pending award amount based on your actual enrollment, view the 2017-2018 Pell Chart or:
- Click on VCCS SIS: Student Information System
- Click on Student Center
- Click on Account Inquiry
- Click on Pending Aid
- Click box that says 'CLICK HERE to see Pending Financial Aid Based on Actual Enrollment' (available through the longest session of each semester's last day to drop a class to qualify for a refund)
- Full-time enrollment = 12 or more credits
- Three-quarter time enrollment = 9-11 credits
- Half-time enrollment = 6-8 credits
- Less than half-time enrollment = 1-5 credits
Most financial aid programs require students to be enrolled for a minimum of 6 credits. You may want to review your Financial Aid Award Notification e-mail for more information or review the requirements for your awards on the Types of Financial Aid page.
Any enrollment change (drop, withdraw, never attend or stop attending) may result in a debt to financial aid (aid eligibility may decrease) and/or LFCC. See the Financial Aid Office for assistance on the impact to your award(s) before making any enrollment decrease or before you stop attending. If you begin attendance in a class(es) and do not finish, you may owe a portion of your award(s) back to LFCC and/or the Department of Education.
To assist you in estimating your family's contribution (cost), we have developed a Net Price Calculator. The calculator will estimate your Parent Contribution and Student Contribution. This calculator is meant to be used as a tool for prospective students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents living in the United States. If you have questions about the Net Price Calculator please contact the Financial Aid Office.
Step 5: Credit balance
Any amount of grant, loan, and/or scholarship remaining after all current semester charges are paid, either out-of-pocket and/or with financial aid funds, will be refunded to you in the form of a refund check (mailed to your address of record at the College) approximately three to six weeks from the beginning of the semester, depending on the type of financial aid you have and when your specific classes begin for the respective semester.

Driver of car killed in crash
MOORLAND, Iowa —
A train crashed into a car in Moorland on Thursday evening, killing the driver of the vehicle.
Authorities said the crash happened about 8:20 p.m. at County Road Hayes just south of D-20 about seven miles southwest of Fort Dodge.
The Iowa State Patrol says the Toyota Camry being driven by 74-year-old Sheryl Ann Parks crossed in front of a Union Pacific freight train. The train struck the vehicle, dragging it about 1700 feet down the tracks.
Parks was killed. She was the only person in the vehicle.
Investigators said the driver may not have seen the approaching train because the intersection was not equipped with crossing arms.

How these have escaped a review on Chocolate Mission over the past two years I do not know!? Cadbury Fingers take me back to fond memories of birthday parties as a kid - it almost seems like these never come out the cupboard unless there was a birthday to celebrate. Back in the day these were a real favourite of mine - so I guess you can imagine my delight when I stumbled across a 'New Munch Bag' variant at my local train station. Packing all the goodness of the standard sized Cadbury Fingers these came described as 'mini biscuits covered with milk chocolate'.
The bag of Mini Fingers weighed in at 40.0g and contained around 15 pieces. The presentation was all very Cadbury like in that it adopted the usual purple colour scheme with the traditional white playful fonts. I thought the fingers themselves were nicely sized at about three times the size of the original Fingers. Another thing that impressed me with these was the freshness, that was more than evident through the strong sweet dairy smell and unbroken nature of the fingers.
So were these bad boys coated with the wonderful Dairy Milk ... nuh uh!! The milk chocolate used here was the stuff used to make the slightly cheaper Cadbury products e.g. Freddo and Fudge bars. Of course only saddos like myself would probably be able to tell, though I could personally detect the difference as the taste of the chocolate was just that little bit sweeter, less milk based and thinner in its melt. The chocolate was still pretty nice but I must admit I enjoyed the biscuit centres more. The biscuit was crunchy with a nice wheaty flavour that had a wonderful driving brown sugar note. The resulting taste was ever so moreish and I really enjoyed letting the outer chocolate melt away in my mouth before munching away on the softened biscuit that was left. The 40.0g bag was unfortunately empty not long after I opened it - still though it proved to be a sufficient snack.
Overall I wasn't expecting miracles from these nor did I get them. What I experienced was exactly what I was expecting - a simple yet pretty tasty chocolate and biscuit combination. The milk chocolate was of a good standard, whilst the biscuit element held its own and made for a pleasant addition to the chocolate. These may have only scored a high seven in the ratings but I will probably have these again the near future. I suggest that if you enjoy the standard sized variant or are in need of getting in touch withe some childhood pastimes that you treat yourselves to a pack of these.

Japan has been the source of multibillion-dollar equity deals so far this year, and it looks like the trend isn't about to stop.
The government, which has a 50% stake in Japan Tobacco, said Monday it aims to raise around $10 billion by selling a 16.6% stake in JT to help fund reconstruction after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
The rally in the benchmark Nikkei Stock Average, which is up 12% year to date, is breathing life back into Japan's once-moribund equity markets. So far this year, U.S. warehouse operator Prologis listed shares in a $1 billion offering, while -equity firm Cerebrus Capital Management sold-down its stake in Aozora Bank in January in a deal worth around $1.8 billion.
Japan Tobacco shares are up 19% so far in 2013.
The most-watched equity deal this year will be Suntory Holdings Ltd.'s up to $5 billion IPO of its core food and beverage unit, slated for this summer.
