Paris Junior College Annual Report 2009 From The President Breaking Records... Preparing Students For The Future he year of 2009 was a record breaking year for Paris Junior College. Bursting at the seams took on new meaning as the college experienced double digit record breaking enrollment. Enrollment in the fall 2009 was upT 31% over two years. Faculty and staff worked hard and long hours to make sure students were enrolled in courses. Class limits were bumped until class-class room space was utilized to capacity and additional classes were added to meet the demand. While part of the increased enrollment is due to the economy, a large part is due to the efforts of our student services staff and faculty. Once students are enrolled and classes begun, faculty and staff focus on student learning and student success. The college continues to look at the needs of our students and find ways to help students be successful in college. As employees of Paris Junior College, we frequently refer to ourselves as the PJC family. The dedicated faculty and staff at Paris Junior College are united in Dr. Pamela Anglin their efforts to improve the lives of the people of our service area through higher President education. The PJC family is dedicated to serving the needs of their communities Paris Junior College through United Way commitments and commitments to many charitable organizations. There is a commitment to take care of our own when in need. This was an amazing year where everyone stretched to make sure the needs of our students were met. Recently, my daughter showed me the facebook page of a PJC student. The facebook page had pictures of other PJC students with a caption that read, my PJC family. How wonderful to know that a PJC student feels the sense of family that is cultivated and nurtured at PJC! Paris Junior College is ready to meet the challenges of the future. Course and program offerings have been expanded. New facilities are planned with the new building at the Greenville Center completed, a residence hall under construction in Paris, and other buildings on the drawing board. The PJC family looks forward to the opportunities the future will bring.

7 Preparing For Biomedical Students Advance A 2+2 Articulation Agreement between PJC and Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences saw the first PJC students advance in the program in 2009. The agreement facilitates the admission and academic transfer of PJC students into the Biomedical Sciences (BIMS) Program at Texas A&M. Students completing PJC’s Biomedical Sciences program have full guaranteed admission to the Texas A&M BIMS program, as long as they maintain a 3.6 GPA. PJC is one of only 10 community colleges in Texas participating in the program. According to PJC Biology Instructor Jack Brown, the program is heavy on science courses and “They [Texas A&M] tell us every year they see a greater success rate from students who have done their first two years at the community college level.” At right, students in the program work with sample Aviation Technology analysis equipment.

PEDC provided the use of an assistant, office space and $30,000—all to be used as matching funds for acquiring the federal grant to fund the incubator’s. The SBDC will hire a director to get the incubator up and running.

Dr. Anglin said at the time, “Adapting to change is nothing new for Ferguson; student retention was a goal every semester; and she always encouraged students to never give up and worked with them if they struggled to remain in school.”
