As the new chancellor of State Center Community College District, I’d like to welcome you to Front & Center, the online magazine of SCCCD. With so many great things happening around the District, it’s an exciting time for all of us. In 2010, Fresno City College celebrates 100 years of excellence in education and dedication to the community. Today, we’re continuing that legacy.

Our commitment to student success drives everything we do. Inspirational faculty like John Cho raise the bar for education, while coaches like Jeff McFall lead accomplishments on the sports field. Distinguished alumni continue to lead the community, and current students are taking the initiative to help others. Expanded facilities and additional programs will offer even more opportunities.

The future is indeed bright, and we’re lucky to have Front & Center here to highlight news from every corner of our District. This website is a great way to stay up-to-date on everything that makes SCCCD what it is. Enjoy new stories as they are published, or explore the extensive archives for an in-depth view of the SCCCD community.
