CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

This institution is committed to serving learners who truly want to make a change for good. They are committed to opening doors and helping students "ladder up".

Cons

The environment is high pressure, all the time, in certain divisions. The expectations are unreasonable given the way the state and county funds the community colleges.
