40 Information on all proposed facility proposals shall be distrib- <br />uted to the NWC'community' for review and input. <br />OPERATIONS, ETC. <br />41 As part of recruiting students, applying for grant requests and <br />soliciting funds for its capital campaign, the college should con- <br />tinue to capitalize on the uniqueness of its strengths. (music <br />ministries, ancient literature, campus setting and architecture, ...) <br />42 In order to "bridge the facilities gap" between 1600 FTE and <br />2400 FTE, the admissions process must be monitored closely and <br />managed in parallel with future building construction. <br />43 Investigate and acquire software that allows campus wide <br />scheduling and facility utilization to become more centralized, <br />integrating academic and event scheduling. (academics, extra- <br />curricular, performances, visitors, weddings, special events, etc.) <br />44 To maximize efficient use of space, departmental "ownership" of <br />classrooms and general labs should not be permitted. <br />45 To alleviate immediate space needs, incorporate one or two addi- <br />tional hours per day to the schedule. Review issue of "protected" <br />hours. <br />46 To provide more flexibility of operations and minimize the need <br />for new space, large group functions can be broken down into <br />smaller groups. (Chapel, dining, concerts, etc.) Culture of the <br />College needs to be included in the discussions of making these <br />changes. <br />47 As part of on-going space management, continue to monitor <br />square footage use and compare against norms. (Space use man- <br />agement would be improved when the College implements a <br />"cost allocation" system to encourage departmental efficiencies, <br />as well as accountability.) <br />48 Consider designating parking zones that reflect frequency of use <br />and need. Control parking with the use of vehicle stickers. <br />49 Purchase Sutton Field for use as overflow practice field. (Note <br />that officials of Presbyterian Homes potentially have plans to <br />build on the Sutton Field area in 7 years.) <br />50 Expand student broadcasting and television to closed-circuit <br />campus programming. <br />NORTHWESTERN COLLEGE CAMPUS MASTER PLAN PARTNERS & SIRNY ARCHITECTS PAGE 5.9 <br />
