Folsom Lake College 2018-2019 Annual Report

FOLSOM LAKE COLLEGE 2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT

TRANSFORMING LIVES THROUGH QUALITY EDUCATION

Message from the President A Message from the President Contact Rachel Dear Colleagues and Friends of FLC, The 2018-2019 academic year was a period of great progress and growth for Folsom Lake College as the landscape of public higher education continued to evolve. Guided Pathways has transformed the way we approach our role in helping students reach their educational goals and we are now diligently exploring our processes and services through a fresh lens of equity and efficiency.

This past year, FLC rose to one of the biggest challenges for our system to date, the implementation of California Assembly Bill AB 705, which mandated that all college students need to be provided with the opportunity to take transfer-level English and math during their first year of study. Thanks to work by our instructional faculty in collaboration with our Student Services faculty and staff, we have made great strides in this area in a short period of time. For data comparing the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 academic years, we have seen a 66% increase in new students who took and successfully passed transfer-level English, and a 36% increase for those who took and successfully passed transfer-level math. We fully expect to see these numbers climb as we continue our focused efforts.

In another area of growth, student demand for online classes has dramatically increased over the past few years. Districtwide data shows that there has been a 12.4% increase in students taking only online classes. This is an opportunity for Folsom Lake College and Los Rios to become the leaders regionally in this high demand teaching modality. As we have increased the number of fully online course sections we offer by 69%, we are actively redefining the best practices for the virtual classroom. As an example, FLC’s Communication Studies department is pioneering the teaching of Introduction to Public Speaking (COMM 301), which is a critical general education course for most majors, in a fully online format. This course could be the linchpin in allowing FLC to offer our students fully online degree programs.

As we continue to grow, keep the wise words of legendary 60 Minutes broadcaster Andy Rooney in mind: “Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all of the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it.”

So while we remain focused on where we want to go, don’t forget to enjoy the climb.

Whitney Yamamura, President

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE FOLSOM LAKE COLLEGE'S FACILITIES MASTER PLAN This past year, Folsom Lake College finalized its Facilities Master Plan, which provides a solid foundation for addressing the longterm facility needs of the college.

This plan represents our priority list with regard to all things facilities – upgrades, improvements, modernizations, and new construction – for the next decade. By guiding and shaping where our students learn, it will have a meaningful impact on how and what they learn, and provide for an enhanced learning experience by creating usable, flexible spaces.

Highlights from the Facilities Master Plan at FLC include a significant expansion of our college, as well as a number of other upgrades to better prepare students for technical and other high-demand fields, improve resources for our students in need, and build modern learning environments to align with changing educational and career needs.

FUTURE PROJECTS INCLUDE:

EXISTING PHASE 1 PHASE 3

HARRIS CENTER FOR THE ARTS

The Harris Center for the Arts reached a momentous milestone during this year marking its eighth season - its one millionth ticket sold!

Patron Cindy Schreier bought two tickets (numbers 1,000,000 and 1,000,001) to Danny Carmo's Mathematical Mysteries from the Harris Center Ticket Office on December 9, 2018.

“One million” is a number that certainly stands out, but there are other equally impressive numbers when it comes to the Harris Center. Since opening in February 2011, it has been home to over 3,000 events, featuring artists from over 50 countries, and generating over $40 million in ticket sales.

The college's regional visual and performing arts center hosts over 400 events and 150,000 attendees each season. The Center also has an annual economic impact of $10 million to the local economy in related spending, including restaurants and hotels.

OUR VISION Folsom Lake College opens minds and doors through the power of education, inspiring all students to become socially responsible global citizens.

OUR MISSION Folsom Lake College enriches and empowers all students to strengthen our community by bridging knowledge, experience, and innovation.

Folsom Lake College, serving the diverse communities of eastern Sacramento and western El Dorado counties, offers educational opportunities and support for students to transfer to four-year institutions, to improve foundational skills, to achieve career goals, and to earn associate degrees or certificates.

OUR COMMITMENT TO EQUITY Education should belong to everyone. To nourish this inclusion, FLC champions equity, diversity, social justice, and environmental sustainability as foundational to academic, campus, and community life. We work with the communities we serve toward just and fair inclusion into society in which all people can participate, prosper, and reach their full potential. We commit to equity driven decision-making, planning, and reflective processes that are responsive to the diverse identities and experiences in our community.

We seek to empower marginalized voices, nurture our many identities and social circumstances, foster cultural responsiveness, and stand against all manifestations of discrimination, including (but not limited to) those based on: ability statuses, age, ancestry, body size, citizenship/immigration status, economic status, educational status, employment status, ethnicity, food/housing insecurity, gender, gender identity, gender expression, incarceration experience, language, marital/partner status, military/veteran status, national origin, neurodiversity, political affiliation, pregnancy/reproductive status, race/racial identity, religion, sex, and sexual orientation.
