Corequisite courses aim to support students, but the accelerated pace and heavy workload aren’t effective for everyone. Latinx and Black students, who enroll in these courses at higher rates, face lower completion rates due to inadequate support. This system isn’t working—let’s advocate for real solutions. #EquitableAccessWeek #HigherEd #TrustEducators #CalCommunityColleges #StudentSuccess

Flexibility Matters: Many students thrive under AB 705 and AB 1705, but not all. FACCC doesn’t want to change placement rules or mandate remediation—we just want to create flexibility for students who need additional support. Stand-alone pre-transfer courses can ensure every student has the opportunity to succeed. #EquitableAccessWeek #TrustEducators #HigherEd #CalCommunityColleges

Thousands of community college faculty in Southern California have been displaced by devastating wildfires. Let’s come together to support our own during this challenging time. Every contribution helps. 💙 Visit FACCC.org/SoCalRelief #WildFireRelief #CommunitySupport #SoCalFires

California community college students deserve options to succeed in math and English! FACCC is sponsoring legislation to: ✅ Allow enrollment in standalone pre-transfer courses if appropriate ✅ Support co-requisite models and oppose mandatory placement into remediation Let’s ensure students struggling with transfer-level coursework have access to the support they need to stay in college and thrive. This #EquitableAccessWeek, join the conversation about how we can create pathways that meet students where they are. #StudentSuccess #HigherEd #CaLeg #TrustEducators #CalCommunityColleges

Today’s Mt.

"It’s a fast-moving train. We’re not against tech, but the question is ‘How do we use it thoughtfully?’” said FACCC President Wendy Brill-Wynkoop, speaking on AI within higher education. @Windo #TrustEducators edsurge.com/news/2024-07-02-… via @EdSurge

🚨 "One-size-fits-all" doesn’t work for education! 🚨 In this recent @FutureEdGU report, FACCC President Wendy Brill-Wynkoop emphasizes the need for flexible solutions, highlighting the struggles faced by older students and students of color, who often withdraw from courses they don't feel prepared for. “We have the most diverse group of students on earth in California community colleges, and what we’ve been backed into is a one-size-fits-all,” she says. @Windo #TrustEducators #HigherEd

We extend our gratitude to the CCCBOG and the Chancellor’s Office for their presence and engagement with our faculty, to @SMC_edu for graciously hosting this gathering, and to @cca4Us and California Community College Independents (CCCI) for their co-sponsorship of this event. 🙏
