Joseph Williams – Appointed to The California Community Colleges Board Of Governors

Written from the Desk of Joseph Williams

I am grateful for the trust and keenly aware of the responsibility to serve our community college students at a time of historical challenges, but great possibilities. 

I am humbled that Governor Gavin Newsom understands the importance of regional inclusion and elevating the Inland Empire into the statewide conversation as it relates to higher education. 

The Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges sets policy and provides guidance for the 73 districts and 115 colleges that constitute the system.

The Board of Governors also selects a chancellor for the system. The chancellor brings recommendations to the board, which has the legislatively granted authority to develop and implement policy for the colleges. In addition, the Board of Governors serves as the Board of Trustees for the California Online Community College District.

I look forward to my service on the California Community Colleges Board of Governors, continuing my work on the San Bernardino Community College District Board of Trustees, and collaborating with everyone who are passionate about helping students succeed.

This is a State appointment; however, I appreciate the local and regional support from my constituents, whom I will continue to represent through tenacity and honor. 

I got you!
