Sports Media Club on college agenda here Wednesday
McCOOK, Neb. – A proposal for a Sports Media Club at McCook Community College is among the items of business at the Mid-Plains Community College board of governors meeting, set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in Room 213 of McMillan Hall, 1205 E. Third in McCook.
The club initiative aims to enhance student engagement and provide practical experience in sports media and journalism.In the business: the board will review and consider approval of bills for May, amounting to $1,674,451.65. It was noted that no Board members received reimbursements during this month.
Vehicle Purchases: Two significant vehicle purchase decisions will be on the agenda. The first concerns the acquisition of six cars for college use, aimed at improving transportation for staff and faculty.
The second involves the purchase of a mini-van and a 15-passenger van, which will support larger group transport needs, likely benefiting athletic teams and student organizations.
Adjunct Pay Adjustment: The Board will also consider an adjustment to adjunct pay. This discussion reflects ongoing efforts to ensure fair compensation for part-time faculty members, which is essential for maintaining a high quality of education and attracting skilled educators.
Community members and stakeholders are encouraged to attend the meeting to stay informed about these developments and participate in the governance process of MPCC.
