share best practices. At its November 25 meeting, the Faculty Senate approved the proposal
submitted by the Chairs Council.
There was extensive discussion regarding whether the proposed purposes encroach upon the
purposes of existing shared governance committees and whether shared governance
committee members effectively solicit input from and communicate shared governance
decisions to members of their respective constituent groups. Ms. Lewellen clarified that the
proposed purposes are to review and provide input on existing procedures as they relate to
the duties and functions of department chairs, and that the chairs currently do not feel they
are informed or involved in the college’s decision-making process. She stated that
establishing the council as an official shared governance committee would give department
chairs a formal voice and lead to more efficient decision making. In order to ensure
communication between the Faculty Senate and committee, the proposal states that the
Faculty Senate Vice President will serve as a co-chair.
The committee recommended revisions to the proposed language and reached consensus to
review the proposal again after Ms. Lewellen shares the Coordinating Committee’s feedback
with the Chairs Council.
Revisions to College Committee on Enrollment Management Membership
At its November 17 meeting, the Coordinating Committee briefly discussed modifying the
Enrollment Management Committee membership to add more faculty representatives as
most of the committee’s purposes and goals involve instruction. Dr. Lacy distributed the
current committee membership list and requested feedback.
After discussion the following revisions were suggested:
Current Membership (15)
Vice President of Academic Affairs
Vice President of Student Services
Dean of Academic Affairs
Dean of Admissions, Records & Services
Dean of Counseling Services
Dean of Student Support Services
Dean of Institutional Effectiveness, R&P
2 instructional deans
3 faculty representatives
2 classified representatives
1 student representative
Proposed Revised Membership (20)
Vice President of Academic Affairs
Vice President of Student Services
Dean of Academic Affairs
Dean of Admissions, Records & Services
Dean of Counseling Services
Dean of Student Support Services
Dean of Institutional Effectiveness, R&P
2 instructional deans
3 faculty representatives
2 classified representatives
1 student representative
Faculty Senate President or designee
CCFF President or designee
1 faculty representative from Counseling
Back to Board Agenda
APPROVED
4
1 Co-Chairperson of the proposed
Department Chairs Committee
ASCC President or designee
Vice President of Business Services or
designee
Mr. Fabish questioned the appropriateness of adding the CCFF President or designee as the
shared governance structure states that Faculty Senate represents faculty and the CCFF
mandate is absent of shared governance responsibilities outside of issues related to
compensation and workplace conditions. Dr. Namala stated that an Academic Senate paper
states that faculty unions have an important role to play in enrollment management. Ms.
Lewellen stated that the paper is posted online.
The committee reached consensus to share the proposed revisions with their constituent
groups and continue discussion at the January 26 meeting.
IX. REPORTS FROM COORDINATING COMMITTEE MEMBERS
Mr. Aiello stated that he submitted applications to several four-year universities and thanked
Dr. Contreras for helping him balance his duties and responsibilities as the ASCC President
with his studies. He stated that the ASCC is continuing working towards establishing a
culture of sustainability and green technology and is also discussing the student initiative. He
stated that as the end of the semester approaches, student leaders are encouraged to focus
on their studies.
Ms. Lewellen stated that at its November 25 meeting, Faculty Senate discussed establishing
an Equity Task Force to address instruction-related items in the Student Equity Plan. She
also stated that several faculty have complained that some shared governance committees do
not establish or adhere to regular meeting schedules which leads to low attendance. Dr.
Schilling suggested that input be requested through the April 2015 survey that will serve as
the shared governance evaluation tool.
X. PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Dr. Lacy reminded everybody that the annual holiday reception is scheduled for Thursday,
December 11 and encouraged staff to donate toys for the “Spark of Love” toy drive. She
also wished the committee a happy holiday season.

Any sexual assault or physical abuse, including, but not limited to, rape, domestic 6
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, as defined by California law, whether 7
committed by an employee, student, or member of the public, occurring on District 8
property, in connection with all the academic, educational, extracurricular, athletic, and 9
other programs of the District, whether those programs take place in the District’s facilities 10
or at another location, or on an off-campus site or facility maintained by the District, or on 11
grounds or facilities maintained by a student organization, or at a District-sponsored 12
activity on non-District property is a violation of District policies and regulations and is 13
subject to all applicable punishment, including criminal procedures and employee or 14
student discipline procedures. (Also see BP 5500 titled Standards of Conduct and AP 15
5520 titled Student Discipline Procedures.) 16
“Sexual assault” includes but is not limited to, rape, forced sodomy, forced oral copulation, 17
rape by a foreign object, sexual battery, or threat of sexual assault. 18

has the affirmative consent of the other or others to engage in the sexual activity. Lack
33

Affirmative consent must be ongoing throughout a sexual activity and can be revoked at 35

indicator of consent.

39
in sexual activity. 40

A. the criminal justice system and the Office of Student Conduct and Grievance; or 55
B. only the Office of Student Conduct and Grievance. 56

assistance to District law enforcement unit employees regarding how to respond 86

for sexual harassment investigations described in AP 3435 regardless of whether a 89
complaint is filed with local law enforcement. 90
All alleged victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking on 91

109
The accused did not take reasonable steps, in the circumstances known to the 110

In the evaluation of complaints in the disciplinary process, it shall not be a valid excuse

that the accused believed that the complainant affirmatively consented to the sexual
113
activity if the accused knew or reasonably should have known that the complainant was 114
unable to consent to the sexual activity under any of the following circumstances:
115
Back to Board Agenda
The complainant was asleep or unconscious. 116
The complainant was incapacitated due to the influence of drugs, alcohol, or 117

party reporter specifically waives that right to confidentiality. All inquiries from reporters 125

Notice to students that the College will change a victim’s academic situation after 145
an alleged domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking and of 146

have others present during a disciplinary proceeding; and 152
o Both the accuser and the accused must be informed of the outcome of 153

SUBJECT: Consideration of Approval to Enter Into a Second Amendment of the
Bookstore Operating Agreement with Follett Higher Education Group Inc.
for Continued Management and Operation of the Cerritos College
Bookstore
ACTION
It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve to enter into a Second Amendment of the bookstore
operating agreement with Follett Higher Education Group Inc. for continued management and operation of
the Cerritos College Bookstore.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the general fund. Cerritos College, and relatedly, the Associated Students of Cerritos
College (ASCC), will receive an annual increase in commission revenues of approximately $180,000, a one-
time commission payment for goodwill of $112,000, a two-percent reduction of costs for approximately 85%
of all new, used and rental textbooks purchased by individual students, and substantial savings for individual
purchases of e-books, e-course packs, course packs, text packages, kits, sets and bundles and non-
returnable and return restricted texts. For the past several years, the total annual commission has been
$350,000 or slightly higher.
REPORT SUMMARY
In response to a Request for Proposal for the Lease, Management, and Operation of College Bookstore
,
Follett Higher Education Group Inc. was awarded a contract by the Board of Trustees and has been operating
the Cerritos College Bookstore since April 16, 2001.
Follett replaced Wallace’s Bookstore, who had operated the Cerritos College Bookstore from March 1, 1998
until its bankruptcy in early 2001. Prior to the contract with Wallace’s Bookstore, Cerritos College personnel
operated the bookstore. An analysis presented to the Board of Trustees on January 14, 1998 noted that the
bookstore had struggled for years to be self-sustaining. Further, it was stated that the imperative need to
change from a college run bookstore to a professionally managed bookstore was, in part, because textbook
prices were not competitive with neighboring bookstores, causing students to leave campus for textbooks,
photocopying and other bookstore related services. Additionally, this analysis noted that for the first six
months of fiscal year 1997-1998 the college run bookstore was at least $600,000 in deficit with a lack of
available funds to pay current obligations. Approximately $500,000 of this deficit was for employee salary
and benefits.
Cerritos College and Follett superseded their April 16, 2001 Agreement with a new Agreement effective
February 1, 2010, whose term expires on January 31, 2015. A First Amendment to the February 1 Agreement
was mutually agreed upon effective July 1, 2010.
Back to Board Agenda
During August, 2014, a Cerritos College Bookstore Contract Negotiating Team was established to develop
priorities for upcoming negotiations between Cerritos College and Follett Higher Education Group Inc. This
team was comprised of students, faculty and administrators. Since September, 2014 District administration
have conducted multiple in-person and telephonic negotiations sessions. Negotiations are concluded and
the parties have reached agreement on terms. These terms are defined in the attached Second Amendment
to the Bookstore Operating Agreement. A summary of the key points are listed in the table below:

Definition of Gross
Margin
Limited and potentially confusing
explanation
Detailed clause states: “for purposes of
explanation, the term “gross margin” as
is used in this Section 9.2 relates to a
retail industry standard calculation used
to measure profitability. The calculation
uses, identifies or determines three
variables: sales price, purchase cost
and profit margin. The formula for
establishing the sales price for a
textbook with a 25% profit margin is
[invoice cost / .75 = sales price]. For
example, using $100 as an invoice cost:
$100 (invoice cost) / .75 (25% profit
margin) = $133.33 (sales price). The
terms “margin” and “markup” are two
different concepts that have distinctly
different technical meaning and
calculation methods. In the example
above, the markup over cost is 33.33%
while the profit margin is 25%.

WHEREAS, at the expiration of the Original Agreement, the Parties entered into a new Bookstore

"First Amendment") to amend the "Bookstore Stock and Sales" provisions of Section 9.2; and
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to extend the Initial Term and revise other provisions of the Agreement
upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Second Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Section 2 of the Agreement entitled, "Term" is amended to read as follows:
"The initial term of the Agreement commenced on February 1, 2010 and will continue through

be void and of non-effect. Upon the satisfaction of the aforementioned condition precedent, the
Parties agree to extend the Initial Term for an additional term of five (5) years, commencing as of the
Effective Date and continuing through January 30, 2020, unless sooner terminated in accordance
with Section 3 (the "First Additional Term"). The Parties may thereafter mutually agree in writing to
extend the First Additional Term for one or more additional terms not to exceed five (5) years each
("Additional Terms"), upon such terms and conditions that the Parties may agree to in writing. The
Initial Term, First Additional Term and Additional Terms shall collectively be referred to hereinafter
as the "Term."
2. Section 4.3 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
On any termination, expiration, or non-renewal of this Agreement, District shall require a new
contractor to purchase, the Store Inventory, including rental inventory, then on hand on the same
terms as purchased by Follett under Section 9.1.
3. Section 5.1 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
The Parties agree that the remaining book value of any "Store Improvements" made by or on behalf

If either Party desires any portion of future Store Improvements to include the installation of
10495v1 / CCC.40
Back to Board Agenda
facilities and/or equipment for the purpose of selling coffee or other food or drink products, the
terms and conditions for any such facilities and/or equipment shall be governed by a separate
agreement. On any termination, expiration or non-renewal of this Agreement, District shall pay
Follett the unamortized book value (calculated on the straight-line method from the in-service
date(s) over the greater of 5 years or until expiration of this Agreement) of all Store Remodeling paid
by Follett.
4. Section 6.3 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
Except as provided for below, Follett shall have the exclusive right, free from any competitor
endorsed, licensed or otherwise approved or supported by District (whether on campus, by catalog
or through electronic commerce) to select vendors of, buy, sell, and distribute merchandise and
services traditionally offered in college and university bookstores, including but not limited to,
textbooks, class rings, graduation regalia (sale and rental) and announcements, course-adopted
software and paper and electronic custom anthologies, and textbook buybacks. This Section 6.3
shall not apply to athletic apparel or gear containing the Cerritos College colors and/or logo or
exclusive contracts already entered into with the District, and does not prohibit occasional sales by
student groups or student government organizations that do not materially impact Store sales.
5. Section 6.15 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
Follett will make its corporate and/or regional office representatives reasonably available to District
to discuss and resolve any operational issues.
6. Section 6.16 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
Follett will offer District faculty and staff a 10% discount on all purchases over $1.00,
excluding textbooks, sale merchandise and academically discounted software. Follett will offer all
District departments a 20% discount on purchases of supplies over $1.00, excluding textbooks, sale
merchandise and academically discounted software.
7. Section 6.17 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
Follett agrees to provide $5,000 annually in textbook scholarships as in-store credit to District
Students. Any textbooks bought with the in-store credit will be discounted a minimum of 25%.

District's mailing for all incoming students. Follett will also work closely with Student Services and

9. Section 9.2 is amended to read as follows:
a) On new textbooks, trade books, e-books, e-coursepacks, text "packages," "kits," "sets," and non-
returnable and return-restricted texts, not more than 25% gross margin on publisher's invoice cost
to Follett (the "net priced books").
10495v1 / CCC.40
Back to Board Agenda
b) On used books, including cloth, paperback and others, not more than 75% of the current new
textbook selling prices.
c) On general merchandise (clothing, giftware, supplies, etc.), at prices competitive in the local area
and not more than the normal gross margin for similar merchandise in the college bookstore
industry.
d) Rental textbooks shall be rented at no higher than 50% of the current new textbook retail price.
e) There will be no add-ons or surcharges to cover freight, handling, publisher restocking fees, etc.
That is, the pricing formulas set forth in this Section 9.2 will be applied to the actual price listed on
the publisher's invoice in order to determine the selling price of a particular textbook/course
material.
f) For purposes of explanation, the term "gross margin" as is used in this Section 9.2 relates to a
retail industry standard calculation used to measure profitability. The calculation uses, identifies or
determines three variables: sales price, purchase cost and profit margin. The formula for
establishing the sales price for a textbook with a 25% profit margin is [invoice cost / .75 = sales
price]. For example, using $100 as an invoice cost: $100 (invoice cost) / .75 (25% profit margin) =
$133.33 (sales price). The terms "margin" and "markup" are two different concepts that have
distinctly different technical meaning and calculation methods. In the example above, the markup
over cost is 33.33% while the profit margin is 25%.
10. Section 10.1 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:
Follett shall pay commission to District at the address stated in Section 16:
15.0% of all Gross Revenue up to $3,000,000; plus
16.0% of any part of Gross Revenue over $3,000,000 (collectively, "Gross Percentage Payment
Formula")
As used in this Section 10, Gross Revenue is defined as all sales made by the Store or the Store’s
world wide web page, catalog, or mail order function (if any), including text rental fees and
replacement costs of rental texts not returned, but excluding any text rental processing fees, less
refunds, returns, taxes, commissions earned from rings and graduation regalia, allocations of Follett-
funded scholarships, discounted sales to departmental faculty, staff and others under this
Agreement, and sales at less than a 20% gross margin, including but not limited to computer system
sales, (such as software, hardware and components) and consumer electronics (such as mp3 players,
digital cameras and e-readers), all as reasonably calculated by Follett. When Follett sells digital
content as agent, Follett’s agency fee shall be the applicable gross revenue. Follett will provide a
guaranteed annual income each contract year to the District equal to the greater of $400,000, 90%
of the annual commission paid to the District during the previous contract year, or the Gross
Percentage Payment Formula. The annual commission received by the District shall be allocated as
follows: all to Student Activities, except $30,000 to the Library, and $50,000 to the Facilities
Department. In consideration for entering into this Second Amendment and in recognition of the
increase in the Gross Percentage Payment Formula, for the Bookstore Fall Rush Sale in 2014, Follett
agrees within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date of this Second Amendment to make an
additional one-time commission payment of $112,000 to the District. On any termination,
expiration or non-renewal of this Agreement, District shall pay Follett the unamortized book value
10495v1 / CCC.40
Back to Board Agenda
(calculated on the straight-line method, from the date the District deposits the funds, over the
greater of 5 years or until expiration of this Agreement) of such one-time commission payment.
11. Unless otherwise defined in the First Amendment or this Second Amendment, all capitalized
terms used herein shall have the same meanings as assigned to them in the Agreement. Any
provision(s) in this Second Amendment which shall be inconsistent with or otherwise at variance
with any provision(s) of the First Amendment or the Agreement shall be deemed to control the
provisions of the First Amendment and the Agreement.
12. Except as otherwise provided in the First Amendment and this Second Amendment, all other
terms of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed by the Parties hereto as of the date first
written above.
