Our colleges are in the midst of unprecedented change. It is change that if done well, will fundamentally transform the academic lives of many of our students. As trustees, our role is to provide oversight and direction, and to ensure accountability and transparency. And it’s important to remember that the implementation of AB 705 must be a collaborative process. As AB 705 is implemented on our college campuses, our oversight role will be critical to whether or not it is successful. There is no question that faculty, administrators and staff are at the center of this change but more importantly so are our students. While we all have a stake in the success of our students it is their futures that are truly at stake.
