From our friends over at Leaf Scholars and Latino Education Advancement Foundation "This month, we were thrilled to host a transformative tour of @evergreenvalleycc for about 30 LEAF Scholars, including some of our second-year scholars who had yet to tour their campus. For many of our scholars who are first-generation college students, this event was a pivotal step in building a strong sense of connection and support, essential for their journey through higher education. The tour was more than just a walkthrough; it was an opportunity for our second-year scholars to welcome and guide the incoming first-years. Their shared experiences and encouragement fostered a warm sense of belonging, smoothing the transition. A heartfelt thank you to Evergreen Valley College for their incredible collaboration and to our second-year LEAF Scholars for creating a welcoming environment for their peers. Together, we are building a community where every scholar feels supported and empowered to achieve their dreams."

I am incredibly proud of our 16 San José City College students who recently showcased their research at the MESA Annual Poster Symposium. Over the summer, they embarked on a journey of discovery and innovation, interning at San José State University to tackle real-world challenges in engineering and computer science. These students have shown remarkable determination and creativity. Their presentations at the symposium were not just a reflection of hard work, but a glimpse into the future of STEM innovation. This transformative experience was made possible through the mentorship and dedication of David Parent and SJSU faculty, whose guidance and expertise were invaluable to our students' success. Your support opened doors to new possibilities and growth, and for that, we are deeply grateful. A special thank you to Chynna Obana, Crystal Garcia, and RICCI LE, for your tireless work supporting our students. You create magic every day and I am so thankful for all that you do. This event was a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when passion, education, and opportunity come together. I’m excited to see what our students will accomplish next as they continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Vinicio J. López, Ed.D. has been named the ninth president of Evergreen Valley College, upon a unanimous vote by the SJECCD board of trustees. A first-generation college student who began his higher education journey as a community college student himself, López has almost 25 years of experience as a community college faculty member and administrator. “Throughout the search process, Dr. López demonstrated a deep commitment to our District’s core values of opportunity, equity, and social justice,” said Beatriz Chaidez, SJECCD chancellor. “We are very fortunate to have someone with his breadth and depth of experience and skills to serve as the next president of Evergreen Valley College.” In addition to his current role at Skyline College, López has experience overseeing student affairs, non-credit and workforce education, dual enrollment, and international education programs, among others. “I am humbled and excited to be joining Evergreen Valley College as the next president,” Dr. López said. “EVC is one of the premier community colleges in California and I look forward to working with my new colleagues among the faculty, classified staff, and administration to continue that commitment to excellence.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/g3evtBUm
