California Community Colleges Chancellor Eloy Ortiz Oakley issued a statement on Gov. Jerry Brown’s

proposed 2017-18 budget: “Governor Brown's proposed budget is good news for community college students. It demonstrates continued confidence in our colleges and provides additional resources to build upon investments made by the state over the past few years aimed at improving student outcomes and fulfilling the promise of a quality college credential for more Californians. This year’s $150 million investment in guided pathways will encourage more colleges to redesign student support and instructional programs and to develop integrated strategies that connect more students to programs, leading to attainment of industry-recognized credentials and to jobs that strengthen families, communities and our state. We look forward to working with the governor and the Legislature in supporting these priorities and focusing on the twin imperatives of improving social mobility for our 2.1 million students and preparing a workforce that fuels our changing economy”.

Attached please find the January 17, 2017 results of a 2016 survey of system-wide policies/initiatives

undertaken in the past five years by the ASCCC and the CCCCO by Chancellor Oakley.
