[Southern California Permaculture] Wed May 16/LWV Panel Discussion/"WHAT IS THE EVOLVING ROLE OF SBCC AS A CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE?"

Tue May 15 12:59:46 PDT 2018

So many great things have taken place over the decades at  our beloved
community college, SBCC, seems like an important topic and panel for all of
us, including those in permaculture circles.  A true community resource…

Is everyone aware there is a beautiful Permaculture demonstration landscape
& garden unfolding on the SBCC West Campus?  Student led, and their hard
work,  but helped by all the permaculture events & programs that helped
influence over the years  for sure.  Thanks to everybody who made that
happen in so many ways, including Mike Gonella, director of Environmental
Horticulture, and Adam Green, director of Environmental Studies, both
committed and supporting Permaculture programs, and Permaculture Design
Course (5 credits), and their remarkable students interested in whole
systems approach and way of thinking, that hopefully will help provide
solutions for the 21st century.

If you can’t make it to the actual event, it is available livestream and
videotaped for later viewing on LWV website.  Margie

COLLEGE?"

In 2016 the League of Women Voters of California finished its Study of
Higher Education, which dealt with widespread criticism of the failure of
California's three-tiered system (of Community Colleges, State Universities
and UC campuses) to meet the demand for more students ready to join the job
market with Baccalaureate degree in hand. The study was in line with both
the League's strong general support of public education and especially of
the community colleges.

The panelists are:

●Dr. Anthony Beebe, SBCC President

●Geoff Green, Chief Executive Officer, SBCC Foundation

●Melissa Moreno, Interim Vice-President, School of Extended Learning

●Professor Matthew Mooney, Chair, SBCC History Department

●David Panbehchi, Student Member, SBCC Board of Trustees

● Krystle Farmer: Student Leader
