In 2020, Palo Alto College celebrated its 35-year anniversary of providing a high-quality education accessible to all. Palo Alto College’s history began with the South San Antonio community leaders championing for more options for higher learning serving the southern sector of Bexar County. In 1974, Fernando Rodriguez Jr. introduced a resolution to work toward obtaining a community college for the West Side or South Side of San Antonio at the Communities Organized for Public Service (COPS) annual convention. Nearly a decade later, the Alamo Community College District approved funds to plan and purchase land for the college on Feb. 21, 1983. The Texas Legislature officially approved a charter for Palo Alto College as the third college of the Alamo Community College District on March 19, 1983. Palo Alto College began offering classes to 231 students in temporary classrooms at high schools and military installations in September 1985, and administrative offices were located at Billy Mitchell Village. Through a bond issue passed in 1983 by Bexar County voters, a $13 million mission-style campus was built and opened in 1987, located inside Loop 410 at Texas Highway 16 in southern Bexar County. The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools awarded full accreditation to Palo Alto College in 1987. Accreditation was last reaffirmed in June 2012, effective until 2022. Palo Alto College has been led by seven presidents during its more 35-year history: • Dr. Terry Dicianna (1985-1989) • Dr. Byron Skinner (1990-1992) • Dr. Joel Vela (1993-1996) • Dr. Enrique Solis (1998-2001) • Dr. Ana M.”Cha” Guzmán (2001-2012) • Dr. Mike Flores (2012-2018) • Dr. Robert Garza (2018-present) 2 3 INSTITUTIONAL PROFILE Organizational Chart President Coordinator of Student Success Dr. Robert Garza Priscilla Aguilar Coordinator of Strategic Manager of Marketing Director of Marketing Director of Community Executive Assistant Communications and Strategic Communications Director of Strategic Initiatives Collaborations Academic Program Specialist to the President and Strategic Communications Pedro Hinojosa Adriana Ballast Vacant Jerry Arellano Leticia De La Rosa Edgar Nandin Janel Santos Administrative Services Specialist Vacant Administrative Assistant to the President Connie Acovio Vice President for Vice President for Student Interim Vice President of Administrative Services Specialist Vacant Academic Success Success College Services Elizabeth Tanner Gilberto Becerra Jr. Katherine Beaumont Doss Dean of Academic Success Dean of Academic Success Dean of Academic Success Director College (Arts and Sciences) (Professional & Technical Education) (Student Support Services) Dean of Student Success Interim Dean of Student Success Director Information Technology Monica Ayala-Jimenez Institutional Research Nicholas Blakeney Patrick Lee Dr. Ray Pfang Tina Mesa Carlos Cruz Caroline Haring Chair of Behavieoral Sciences, Project Director Academic Program Coordinator Lead Instruction Librarian TRIO Talent Search Coordinator College Technology Humanities, Education & Criminal Coordinator of Student Success Cynthia Sanchez Director of Enrollment HSI STEM – SEEDS Grant Justice Vacant Helena Fischer Management Director of Advising Erron Gonzalez Henry Moreno Dr. John Hernandez Elizabeth Aguilar-Villarreal Michael Ximenez Chair of Business Management, Chair of English, Foreign Access Services Librarian Project Director TRIO Upward Director Natatorium/Gym Computing Sciences & Tech., Office Linda Plevak Bound Math & Science Coordinator of Student Success Advising Team Leader Languages & INRW Management & Horticulture Admissions and Records Shanea Allen Director College Services Jennifer Scheidt Dafney Bell BOLD Advising Center Joseph Coppola Luis Hernandez Carmen Velasquez Jennifer Mejia Electronic & Database Services Chair of Fine, Performing & Chair of Agriculture, AMT, Project Director TRIO Upward Engineering, Healthcare Librarian Bound Campus Budget Officer Communication Arts interim Enrollment Team Lead Advising Team Leader Rosita Elizondo Administration & Logistics Tosca Gonsalves Adrianna Sanchez College Events Coordinator Hector Garza Dr. Satakanta Mohanty Karla Frausto SEED Advising Center Nidia Lopez Destiny Moreno Chair of Mathematics & Academic Program Director Interim Project Director TITLE V Interim Senior Coordinator for Accounting Director Cosmetology Thomas Murguia – Impacto Grant S.H.A.R.E.
