Message from the President There has never been a greater time or greater need for a comprehensive educational plan and set of institutional priorities for Golden West College (GWC), hereafter referred to as the College. Integrated planning is a key to the success of the College. We have recently revisited our mission and used that experience to help craft new goals for the College to address in the 2010-2016 planning cycle. This Educational Master Plan builds on those five new goal topics that were developed through a full year of campus discussions involving wide campus input and review. The dialogue helped shape the development and adoption of both specific goals and performance measures that are incor- porated into this Plan and will be used as a future agenda for our College over the 2010-2016 planning cycle. Pathways II, is a summary document of this Plan. A companion Facilities Master Plan sets the direction for the College out to 2025. Both will serve the campus as tools to guide a variety of planning activities and capital construction efforts. Our planning continues to exercise the processes and structures we strengthened as a result of our 2007 accreditation site visit. I believe this planning document provides the College with a clear direction and methodology to address both the Accrediting Commission’s recommendations as well the challenges identified in our own subsequent analysis. Implementation of our long-range plans will ensure that the College’s programs and services will fulfill our mission, meet the needs of our diverse student population and influence the budget allocation process to ensure that the College continues to move toward its goals. The process by which the new goals and this Plan were developed also ensures that all of the constituencies of the College have the opportunity to participate in the planning and governance of the College. These are extraordinary challenging times for all institutions of higher education in this California and nation. However, educators bring with them the requisite skills, the moral determination as well as their commitment to serve student interests well, which make them well suited for these challenges. This College, now with 45 years of history and tradition, has a committed staff, excellent faculty, capable administrators, and an informed local Board of Trustees. We are well prepared to meet these challenges. These documents explain strategies we might consider to achieve our goals and address our challenges. Together we can make this happen. Wes Bryan, President 4 Golden West College Educational Master Plan II. Context for the Educational Master Plan The last Golden West College Master Plan was created in 2004-05 in association with the passage of Measure “C”, a general obligation bond to support capital construction at all three colleges in the Coast Community College District. A Technology Plan and Facilities Master Plan were also created at this time. These plans required extensive planning and evaluation of existing conditions, which was done in 2004. Faculty, administration, staff and students were also consulted to ensure that the new plan would meet the needs of the College. Pathways: Our Guide for College Planning was adopted by the campus Planning and Budget Committee on September 14, 2004. It was the result of a year of lively discussions about the future of GWC. All of the campus constituencies worked to shape this plan for the coming years. The core values of open access and quality education provided the framework used to guide discussions and decision-making from 2004 to 2011. These goals can be found in the Pathways document. The Educational Master Plan (EMP) is complemented with a number of other planning documents such as the Student Equity Plan was developed in 2005 and has been updated in 2008 and 2010; the Basic Skills Initiative Plan and the Golden West College 2020 Resources and Facilities Master Plan were created in 2008; the Matriculation Plan was updated in 2009; and an Emergency Response Plan authored in 2010. The Educational Master Plan (EMP) is the latest installment in the college’s efforts to plan for the future. The EMP is a planning document that projects the needs for future growth, space and supporting services in light of the primary educational purpose of the College. The document includes an analysis of the college and the surrounding community, a list of goals for the years 2010-2016, and provides highlights of the college programs and services. It also discusses assumptions about the future regarding planning, future growth, campus needs through the year 2025 and potential opportunities the College may pursue as strategies to achieve the institution’s goals. The EMP was written in association with the District Vision 2020 Plan. It attempts to encourage improvement and change while providing a plan that is realistic enough to be implemented by the College over time. The EMP is complemented by a series of targeted functional plans as noted above and is not intended to detail the physical design of the campus, identify facility projects or outline a plan for implementing and funding capital construction. Starting in 2009-10 the campus community began to identify goals for the plan. Faculty, administrators, staff and students attended open forum and committee meetings to determine what their goals will be and how to accomplish them. The information about these meetings is listed in the appendix to this Plan. The ideas that were presented during these meetings are incorporated into the EMP. For several years the college has reviewed instructional programs and support units on a two-year cycle. Highlights from these reviews are included in the EMP. Opportunities for the future are also discussed in the EMP, which considers national and state priorities, as well as the needs in the effective service area. The EMP outlines future space needs so that the College can properly address them. Golden West College Educational Master Plan 5 III. The College Golden West College (GWC) opened in 1966 with the goal of being a modern and forward-thinking community college. R. Dudley Boyce, the first college president, set this tone with the saying, “Let change be the tradition.” Though the campus itself was unfinished when the College first opened, 2,000 day-students and 3,000 night-stu- dents registered for the fist term. The College is preparing to celebrate its forty-fifth anniversary, so this is an ap- propriate time to look back at the early years of Golden West College. In the sixties,
