Recommendations
 Districtwide Recommendation #1:
In order for the colleges and District to fully meet the intent of
the previous recommendation, the State Center Community
College District (SCCCD) must engage in continuous, timely, and
deliberative dialogue with all District stakeholders to coordinate
long-term planning and examine the impact of the planned
increase in the number of colleges and the future roles of the
centers on the existing institutions. This includes creating,
developing and aligning District and college plans and planning
processes in the following areas: District strategic plan, facilities,
technology, organizational reporting relationship of centers,
location of signature programs, funding allocation, human
resources, research capacity.
Fresno City College
Follow Up Report Update: FCC
Recommendations
 College Recommendation #1.
In order to meet Standards regarding the college
catalog, the team recommends that the Academic
Freedom Statement be included in the next publication
of the college catalog.
 College Eligibility Requirement – Concern.
While the team determined that Fresno City College
currently has sufficient staff with appropriate
credentials, it also concluded during its visit that the
high turnover rate of presidents and other
administrators during this last accreditation cycle
contributed to the college’s challenges.
