The early years of development of DVC are described with reference to the roles and contributions of students, classified staff members, faculty, and the first administrators. Part 2 focuses on particular changes and issues in the early 1960's and 1970's, such as the college's efforts to govern fairly and effectively, philosophical concerns such as student retention and open door policies, outreach programs, student and faculty action on social and political issues, and maintaining a campus culture. In part 3, some recent changes and issues are described including the effects of growing financial constraints, new student populations, responses to California state legislation with regard to community colleges such as Proposition 13, and changes in organization and leadership at the college. This final section also reviews new programs such as those for women and older students, closing with a discussion of professional renewal efforts. Included are photographs showing changes in the physical environment of the college and some of the notable college events, as well as appended tables of longitudinal data on total enrollments and enrollments by gender, student age, and course loads.

A state leader intransferring students to the University of California and other four-year institutions, DVC also offers excellent occupational programs. Success didn't just happen. It took the right combination of commit- ment, dedication and effort to build an institution as effective as this one. This, the first history of Diablo Valley College, will describe the events, the people, and the ideas that contributed to the college we know today. The community we serve has expenenced unparalleled growth. New students arrive in greater numbers each year. Many new faculty and staff members have joined us recently, and there will be more in the next decade. All of these people are part of our future. They will write the next volume in our history. The exciting account contained here will help oriem them to the values and perspectives that have shaped DVC thus far. Written histories of community colleges are rare. We think ours will contribute to the cause of all who recognize their importance. Forty years ago DVC was more hope than promise, more vision than reality. Much has been accomplished. This is a story we are proud to tell. Phyllis L. Peterson President, Diablo Valley College XIII/ix PREFA CE "Ai growing community expands its instructional program to meet its needs." This was the way two of the first Contra Costa County com- munity college administrators foresaw the growth of Diablo Valley Col- lege in an article published in the journal Educational Leadership in 1951. In this book we review the outcomes of their forecast. We look at the educational ideals of the founders of the college and at changes in the goals of community college education in Central Contra Costa County over the past 40 years. At the heart of our interest in this college are its students. As the founders said, in an early statement of college philosophy, "We conceive the heart of the college to be the student." The students then and now and the college then and now must be considered in the context of social and economic change in the metropoli- tan Bay Area and increasingly rapid changes in Central Contra Costa County. Not only the local and regional changes but also changes in the state and in the nation are part of our perspective. In the course of our study we have identified several themes that we think have contributed to DVC's uniqueness as a college: (1) an unwillingness to adopt procedures, standards, or values simply because they exist in common practice (2) a commitment to democratic principles in all aspects of campus life (3) responsiveness to social and demographic change (4) resistancenot always successfulto fragmentation and diffendation in the curriculum and in relationships within the institution (5) a feeling that DVC is a special place whic'h inspires loyalty Part One sets the historical scene for the establishment of public two-year collegesnationally, in California, and in Contra Costa County. The early years of development of Diablo Valley College are described with reference to the roles and contributions of students, classified staff members, faculty, and the first administrators. Part Two focuses on par- ticular changes and issues, including highly controversial ones,
