Message from the College President

Dear Community Members,

It is truly an honor to serve the students, the college, and the community as the President of Columbia College. The college has a brilliant and inspiring culture that is truly student focused. As a California Community College, we are committed to providing comprehensive educational programs and services to meet the needs of our students. The administration, faculty, and staff are equally committed to supporting the educational goals of our students and being the first place our community looks to for excellence in higher education.

The Columbia College Foundation is an essential partner in providing needed support for projects that cannot be fully covered by state funding, including scholarships, educational supplies, equipment, and facilities. With assistance from community members and donors, such as you, we can offer a much more meaningful experience for those who attend Columbia College. Student success is our priority and with that comes the privilege to provide educational opportunities so that our students bring back their expertise and knowledge to the community we serve.

Thank you for joining me in this worthwhile endeavor. Together, we can further develop the college’s ability to serve students and the community through private philanthropic support to the Columbia College Foundation.

Dennis Gervin, Ph.D
President
Columbia College
