The people of the Riverside Junior College District make these educa- tional opportunities available at a minimum cost to the student because of the conviction that the fullest possible development of each individual's abilities is essential to the welfare of the local community and of the state and nation. To accomplish these objectives, the college recognizes five purposes: PHILOSOPHY OF RIVERSIDE CITY COLLEGE 1. Occupational Education Riverside City College is a public junior college and thus an integral Training should be given to those students who will finish their part of the California state system of higher education. As such, and in period of formal education in the junior college. This training should keeping with policies endorsed by both the state legislature and its own be designed to achieve basic occupational competence and to give oppor- tunities to achieve civic competence and personal adequacy of living.

For these it aims to provide a balanced program which leads to of his family, his community, his state, his nation, and his world. transfer with advanced standing to four-year colleges and universities, 3. Preparation for Transfer specialized training which increases vocational competence, and a general Each junior college should provide lower division or the first two education which fosters personal growth and effective citizenship in the years of college work for those students who plan transfer to a four-year college or university after completing two years in junior college.This home and in the community. education should be broad enough to include the lower division require- ments in the liberal arts and in scientific, engineering, and other pro- fessional fields. As an integral part of the state system of higher educa- tion, the college aims specifically to satisfy the requirements of the University of California for admission to its upper division. Fulfilling the lower division requirements of the University of California is equivalent to fulfilling the lower division requirements of most colleges and universities. 4. Guidance It is the specific responsibility of every junior college to assist its students to "find themselves." A program of training and guidance should be provided so that every student may discover his aptitudes, choose a life work, and prepare for the successful pursuit of such work. 5. Community Service Every junior college should cooperate with other public educational institutions in providing instruction to meet the needs of all people living in the community. This program is carried on primarily through college evening classes. It includes occupational and general education as well as lower division college work. 6 7 9 1 962 1 963 II CALENDAR JULY JANUARY COLLEGE CALENDAR S MTWT FS SM T W TF s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 3 4 5 ~I 1962-1963 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1962 Administration of tests for new stu- 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 April 14 - August 25 - - - - - 29 30 31 27 28 29 30 31 I dents (see schedule, pages 20-21) - Summer session June 18 - July 27 - - - - - AUGUST FEBRUARY Registration for first semester July 19 - August 28 - - - - - WT F S S M T W TF S Late registration for first semester S M T August 31 (Friday) - - - - - 1 2 3 4 1 2 September 4 (Tuesday) - - - Freshman orientation 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - - Instruction begins 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 September 5 (Wednesday) 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 September 10 (Monday) - - - Admission Day 26 27 28 29 30 31 24 25 26 27 28 I September 12 (Wednesday) - - Fall convocation - 10:30 a.m. Last day to drop classes without October 19 (Friday) - - - - - MARCH SEPTEMBER I penalty SM TW TF S MT WT F S S November 9 (Friday) - - - - Mid-term grade reports 1 2 Administration of tests for new stu- 1 November 17 -January 19, 1963 - 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 dents (see schedule, pages 20-21) 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 November 22 (Thursday) - - - Thanksgiving Day - legal holiday 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 - School holiday 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 November 23 (Friday) - - - 30 31 December 24 -January 1 (inclusive) Christmas recess Counseling center open for second December 27, 28, 31 - - - - - semester registration OCTOBER APRIL II, S MT WTFS SMTW TFS 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 1963 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 January 2 - January 18 - - - - Registration for second semester 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 - - - Final examinations 28 29 30 31 28 29 30 January 17, 18, 19, 21, 22 I January 23 (Wednesday) - - - Late registration for second semester Freshman orientation NOVEMBER MAY January 25 (Friday) - - - - - End of first semester S M T WTF S S M TW TF S January 25 (Friday) - - - - - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 January 28 (Monday) - - - - Second semester begins 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 5 6 7 8 9 lO 11 February 12 (Tuesday) - - - - Lincoln's Birthday -legal holiday 17 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 I 11 12 13 14 15 16 February 22 (Friday) - - - - Washington's Birthday -legal holiday 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 March 8 (Friday) - - -- - Last day to drop classes without 25 26 27 28 29 30 26 27 28 29 30 31 penalty March 29 (Friday) - - - - - Mid-term grade reports DECEMBER JUNE April 1 - 5 (inclusive) - - - - Spring recess S M TWTF S S M T W T F S - - - Memorial Day -legal holiday 1 1 May 30 (Thursday) - - Final examinations 2 3 4 o"" 6 7 8 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 June 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 - - - - - 9 lO 11 12 13 14 15 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 June 11 (Tuesday) - - - - - End of semester 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 June 12 (Wednesday) - - - - College commencement 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 I I June 17 (Monday) - - - - - Summer session begins 30 31 30 10 DIRECTORY ORGANIZATION 11 RIVERSIDE CITY COLLEGE - RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION 3650 Fairfax Avenue -Telephone OV 4-3240 Foundation Riverside City College was founded March 13, 1916, when, in response DIRECTORY to a general petition of electors, the City Board of Education authorized the ADMINISTRATION OFFICES-3650 Fairfax Avenue introduction of junior college courses in the Polytechnic High School.

  • Unit 1: Where Did Our Local Governments Come From?
    UNIT 1: WHERE DID OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS COME FROM? “These Americans are the most peculiar people in the world. In a local community in their country, a citizen may conceive of some need which is not being met. What does he do? He goes across the street and discusses it with a neighbor. Then what happens? A committee begins functioning on behalf of that need. All of this is done by private citizens on their own initiative. The health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of function performed by private citizens.” NEW WORDS hese are the words of Alexis de Tocqueville, a Frenchman who toured and wrote about the new country of United States of America during the T The following are new words 1830s.

CHAD MAYES Minority Floor Leader Republican Leader DANIEL ALVAREZ E. DOTSON WILSON Secretary of the Senate Chief Clerk of the Assembly THE STATE FLAG The Bear Flag was designated California’s State Flag by legislative enactment in 1911. It is patterned after the historic flag flown at Sonoma on June 14, 1846, by a group of American settlers in revolt against Mexican rule in California. This short-lived revolution ended on July 9, 1846. The general design and details of the Bear Flag are set forth in Section 420 of the Government Code. FOREWORD The California Legislature is privileged to present this compilation of historic documents. Taken together, these compacts, treaties, and charters embody the ongoing evolution of our core principles of representative democracy. It is important to note that our state Constitution is a living document. It has been amended over 500 times since its adoption in 1879. Some recent amendments have included a change to California’s Term Limits law through the passage of Proposition 28 (2012), the California Legislature Transparency Act enacted by Proposition 54 (2016) enhances public access to the legislative process, and with the adoption of Proposition 25 (2010), the vote threshold to pass the state budget is now a majority vote.

ERICKSON Former Research Director of the LCB In the beginning, the region now occupied by the State of Nevada was held by Data Historical the Goshute, Mojave, Paiute, Shoshone and Washoe Indians and claimed by the Spanish Empire until the early 1800s. Th e northern extent of the Spanish claim was defi ned as the 42nd parallel in the Adams-Onis Treaty of 1819 between the United States and Spain. Th is north latitude line serves currently as Nevada’s northern boundary with Oregon and Idaho. Spanish explorations into this region have never been documented clearly enough to establish any European party constituting the earliest expedition into Nevada. If in fact there was some penetration, it must have been by the Spanish in the southernmost portion of our state, possibly as early as 1776. In 1821 Mexico won its war of independence from Spain and gained control over all the former Spanish territory in the area of what is now our “South-West.” Spain had done nothing to occupy or control what is now Nevada, a vast region virtually “terra incognita,” having no permanent non-Indian population and considered barren, arid and inhospitable. Quite understandably, the Spanish concentrated on settlements and nominal control in the more accessible and better-known coastal regions of the Californias and New Mexico.

How California Was Won: Race, Citizenship, And The Colonial Roots Of California, 1846 – 1879 Abstract The construction of California as an American state was a colonial project premised upon Indigenous removal, state-supported land dispossession, the perpetuation of unfree labor systems and legal, race- based discrimination alongside successful Anglo-American settlement. This dissertation, entitled “How the West was Won: Race, Citizenship, and the Colonial Roots of California, 1849 - 1879” argues that the incorporation of California and its diverse peoples into the U.S. depended on processes of colonization that produced and justified an adaptable acialr hierarchy that protected white privilege and supported a racially-exclusive conception of citizenship. In the first section, I trace how the California Constitution and federal and state legislation violated the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This legal system empowered Anglo-American migrants seeking territorial, political, and economic control of the region by allowing for the dispossession of Californio and Indigenous communities and legal discrimination against Californio, Indigenous, Black, and Chinese persons.
