Saddlebacks' Classified Senate was among the first classified senates in the state, which began meeting around 1982. The senate is an active force in the shared governance process and staff development activities. The State-wide non-profit organization that supports the role of classified staff in the California Community College System is 4 CS (Classified Senate).
Classified senates were developed to represent classified staff in participatory governance issues only -- those areas not pertaining to collective bargaining. Shared governance was designed to address non-negotiable items and establish an environment of participatory, consultative governance. Participation comes from both senate and union in the governance process.
During the Fall of 2011, the college had 282 full and part time employees. Currently, during the Fall of 2012, we have 264 full time and part time employees and expecting 18 retirements by 2013. As of Spring 2012, Saddleback serves over 27,673 students. You can find fast facts about the SOCCCD here or the state demographic reports here.
