2016-2017 Annual Report ANNUAL REPORT 2016-2017 “ T he Art of S tudent Success" FOLLOW US ON THE COVER, PICTURED ABOVE Citrus College celebrated the much-anticipated opening of its state-of-the-art Visual Arts Building @CitrusCollege on Sept. 6, 2016. The $19-million project provides nearly 37,000 square feet of educational space for Citrus College’s art, journalism and multimedia programs. It features studios equipped for animation, digital design, drawing, painting, and photo and video production, a 150-seat @CitrusCollege lecture hall, an art gallery, computer labs, a ceramics lab, general purpose classrooms, faculty offices, and a space for the college’s student newspaper, the Clarion. The three-story building @Citrus.College was funded by Measure G, a general obligation bond measure approved by voters in 2004. MISSION STATEMENT Citrus College provides innovative educational opportunities and student support services that lead to the successful completion of degrees, transfer, career/technical education and basic skills proficiency. The college fosters personal and professional success through the development of critical thinking, effective communication, creativity and cultural awareness in a safe, accessible and affordable learning community. In meeting the needs of our demographically diverse student population, we embrace equity and accountability through measurable learning outcomes, ethical data-driven decisions and student achievement. VISION STATEMENT Citrus College will provide excellent educational opportunities that are responsive to the needs of the community and help students meet economic, social and environmental challenges to become active participants in shaping the world of the future. VALUES • Student Focus • Excellence • Collaboration • Diversity • Life-Long Learning • Integrity • Technological Advancement “ The Art of S tudent Success" 2533 2737 151317119 371 TABLE OF CONTENTS 03 Message from the Superintendent/President 04 2016-2017 Timeline 07 Year in Review 17 Student Achievement 18 Student Demographics 24 Citrus College Foundation 30 Honor Roll of Donors 37 Citrus Community College District Board of Trustees MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT/PRESIDENT Every year, more than 20,000 students enroll at Citrus College. Carefully juggling multiple responsibilities, such as work and family, they attend their classes with the dream of one day earning an associate degree, transferring to a four-year college or university, or earning a certificate. In return, the college community is committed to doing everything it can to help these students reach their academic and professional goals. This long-standing commitment to student achievement was made even stronger during the 2016-2017 academic year. Faculty and staff continued to uphold their exemplary standard of academic excellence and service, resulting in several significant milestones. I am proud to share some of the year’s highlights in this Annual Report. As you will read, all of these accomplishments underscore the college’s focus on college completion. Of course, success is never a solitary pursuit. Rather, it is the product of skillful collaboration. Whether it was the introduction of a dynamic strategic plan or the dedication of a beautiful new campus building, the progress Citrus College achieved in 2016-2017 was made possible by the leadership of its board of trustees, the hard work of its employees, and the support of its community leaders and local residents. This collective effort is reflected in this publication’s theme, “The Art of Student Success.” At no time was the importance of collaboration more evident than during the commemoration of the Citrus College Foundation’s 50th anniversary. In November 2016, more than 300 guests gathered at the college to celebrate the Foundation’s history of philanthropic involvement and the forging of partnerships to provide scholarships and other resources to help students meet their educational goals. This spectacular event emphasized the fact that great things happen when a group of individuals are united in purpose. Relationships are the key to the Citrus College Foundation’s remarkable growth over the past 50 years, and relationships are what will empower the entire college community to fulfill its goal of increasing college completion rates. The financial support, professional expertise, encouragement and goodwill of our friends and donors truly impact the lives of our students. Thank you for supporting and encouraging Citrus College as we work to foster and increase student success. Geraldine M.
