GENERAL INFORMATION CATALOG 2015-2016 Catalog 10/30/15 11:50 AM Page 6 GENERAL INFORMATION THE DISTRICT The college district serves the population of the inland empire of western San Bernardino County, where the communities of Chino, Chino Hills, Fontana, Guasti, Montclair, Mt. Baldy, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga (Alta Loma, Cucamonga, and Etiwanda), and Upland are located. Four districts serving high school students are contained within these communities. They are the Chaffey Joint Union High School District, the Chino Valley Unified School District, the Fontana Unified School District, and the Upland Unified School District. THE COLLEGE ACCREDITATION Chaffey College is a two-year public community college and is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (10 Commercial Blvd., Suite 204, Novato, CA 94949, (415) 506-0234), an institutional accrediting body recognized by the Commission on Recognition of Postsecondary Accreditation and the U.S. Department of Education. Chaffey College was last fully accredited by the ACCJC in March 2010. The college is scheduled for its next comprehensive evaluation in Spring 2016. Chaffey is a member of the American Association of Community Colleges, the Community College League of California, Service Members Opportunity Colleges (SOC), the Consortium of Southern California Colleges and Universities, and is approved by the Office of Private Post-Secondary Education for Veterans Benefits. INSTITUTIONALLY-SET STANDARDS To address Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) Accreditation Standards, Chaffey College has developed an inclusive shared governance process to review and set institutional standards. Chaffey’s College Planning Council (CPC) includes representation from committees that are most closely connected to the District’s planning process (e.g., Program and Services Review, Outcomes and Assessment, and Curriculum Committees), as well as the District’s executive team, instructional and student services deans, Associated Students of Chaffey College (ASCC), and the executive boards of both the Faculty and Classified Senates. CATALOG 2015-2016 One of the main responsibilities of CPC is to evaluate institutional effectiveness, specifically the development and ongoing assessment of institutionally set standards. Starting with ACCJC and California Community College Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI) identified metrics, CPC engages in an annual review of externally mandated and internally valued performance outcome measures, establishing short-term (annual) and long-term (3 to 5 year) goals. The development of institutionally set standards occurs through a rigorous review of evidence that includes but is not limited to: an examination of empirical data; review of 3-5 year trends; identification of internal and external factors that directly or indirectly impact performance outcomes; and inclusion of feedback and professional judgment from content experts. Institutional standards are set, assessed, and modified as needed on an annual basis. Performance outcomes on institutionally set standards are disseminated annually to the Chaffey College Governing Board, District decision-making groups and constituencies, and are made available to the public. HISTORY Chaffey College represents the vision of George and William Chaffey, who founded the City of Ontario in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Recognizing the need for an institution of higher learning, the Chaffey brothers donated land and established an endowment for a private college known as the Chaffey College of Agriculture. On March 17, 1883, the cornerstone of the college was laid at Fourth Street and Euclid Avenue in Ontario. Due to meager financial resources, the college became an extension of the University of Southern California and then closed for a brief period in the early 1900’s. In 1906 the Chaffey endowment was legally separated from the University of Southern California and the reorganized Chaffey Union High School District became the beneficiary of the College Trust. In 1916 the Chaffey Junior College of Agriculture was added as a postgraduate department to the high school. A separate junior college district was created in 1922 and in 1957 bonds were approved in support of a complete separation of the high school and college facilities. Property was acquired in Alta Loma and a longanticipated new college opened its doors in the spring of 1960. Passage of Measure L ( 230 million) in 2002 is enabling the college to construct and renovate a number of buildings on the Rancho Cucamonga, Chino, and Fontana Campuses. 6 STUDENT EQUITY The District, and each individual who represents the District, commit to actively pursuing equity for Chaffey College students without regard to national origin, religion, age, sex (gender), race, color, medical condition, ancestry, sexual orientation, marital status, physical or mental disability, or because he or she is perceived to have one of the foregoing characteristics through the implementation of the goals and objectives of the Student Equity Plan. Being sensitive to the personal, professional, and aesthetic needs of its diverse populations and cultures, the college will incorporate into its educational process the richness of world cultures, languages, ethnicities, and artistic pluralism that is strongly represented within our community. We commit to respecting, celebrating, and integrating student’s diverse cultures into all phases of campus life. We will provide leadership in creating a climate to ensure that all students, faculty, staff, and administrators share in the implementation of Chaffey College’s equity goals. ADMINISTRATION AND GOVERNING BOARD The superintendent/president is the chief administrative officer and is assisted by associate superintendents, vice presidents, deans, directors, and members of the faculty in bringing educational excellence to the community. The Governing Board has five members elected by district voters, and a student member elected by the student body. SCHOOLS AND SERVICES The college has six schools which provide an extensive range of the highest quality transfer and occupational courses: Business and Applied Technology; Health Sciences, Language Arts; Mathematics and Science; Social and Behavioral Sciences; and Visual and Performing Arts. Student Services provides additional instruction in physical education, athletics, cooperative education, disability programs, and guidance. The college also provides many excellent student support services including student success centers, transfer counseling, career planning assistance, job placement, financial aid, health care, child care, and help with public transportation.
