I. GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORY OF THE DALLAS COUNTYCOMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT

The Dallas County CommunityCollege District is comprised of sevencolleges located strategicallythroughout Dallas County. Togetherthe colleges enroll approximately75,000 students and employ over1,900 full-time faculty and staffmembers.

The growth of the District into aneducational system with such impactwas not by chance. In May, 1965,voters created the Dallas CountyJunior College District and approveda $41.5 million bond issue to financeit. The next year the District's firstcollege, EI Centro, began operation indowntown Dallas. Eastfield Collegeand Mountain View Colleqe enrolledtheir first students in 1970, and theplans for a multi-campus district

became a reality. Richland Collegebecame the District's fourth collegein 1972.

The voters of Dallas Countyapproved the sale of an additional$85 million in bonds in September,1972. This step provided forexpansion of the four existingcolleges and the construction of threemore colleges. A key part of theexpansion program was theremodeling and enlarging of EI CentroCollege, a project completed in 1979.Construction of new facilities resultedin the opening of Cedar ValleyCollege and North Lake College in1977 Brookhaven College, the finalcampus in the seven-college masterplan, opened in 1978.

DISTRICT PHILOSOPHY AND GOALS

Since 1972, the District has beenknown as the Dallas County

Community College District. Thename shows that the District hasoutgrown the term "junior college."The name also reflects the District'sphilosophy. The colleges truly arecommunity institutions, meeting thevaried educational needs of thegrowing Dallas County region. Theprimary goal of the District and itscolleges is to help students of allages achieve effective living andresponsible citizenship in a fast-changing region, state, nation, andworld. Each college is thereforecommitted to providing a broad rangeof educational programs for thepeople it serves.

The needs, abilities, and goals ofeach student are consideredimportant. The focus is on creatingan educational program for theindividual rather than squeezing orstretching the individual to fit an"educational mold."

Page 12: richland college catalog 1983 -84 - Dallas College

13

The District therefore has a placefor different kinds of students. Thereis a place for the young personsetting forth toward a degree inmedicine and a place for the adultdelving into an interesting h~bby toenrich leisure hours. There IS a placefor the person preparing to enter atrade or technical field with a year ortwo of studies, and a place for theemployed individual wanting toimprove occupational skills, There isa place for the very bright highschool student ready to begin collegework in advance of high schoolgraduation, and a place for the highschool dropout who now sees theneed for education in today'scomplex society. In short, there is aplace for everyone.

How do the colleges meet theeducational needs of such a variedfamily? The answer is found in fourcategories of programs:1.For the student working toward a

bachelor's or higher degree, thecolleges offer a wide range of first-year and second-year courseswhich transfer to senior collegesand universities.

2. For the student seeking ameaningful job, the colleges offerone-year and two-year programs intechnical and occupational fields.

3.For the employed person wishing toimprove job skills or to move into anew job, the colleges offer creditand non-credit adult educationalcourses. '

4.For the person who simply wants tomake life a little more interesting,the colleges offer communityservice programs on cultural, civicand other topics.Additional programs are available

for the high school student, dropout,and others with special needs. Thecolleges help each student design theeducational program that best meetsindividual needs. Every student isoffered intensive counseling to definegoals and identify abilities. Continuedguidance is available throughout thestudent's college career in casegoals and plans change. Thisemphasis on counseling, rare forsome institutions, is routine at allDistrict colleges.DISTRICT RESPONSIBILITIESTo carry out the District philosophy,the colleges obviously must offer arange of programs and courses,including guidance services. Theseprograms and courses must helpeach individual attain a high level oftechnical competence and a highlevel of cultural, intellectual, andsocial development. In addition, high

professional standards for theacademic staff must be maintainedwithin a framework prescribed by theBoard of Trustees. At the same time,the program and organization of eachcollege must make maximum use offaculty and facilities.

The colleges have a basicresponsibility to provide educationaland cultural leadership to thecommunity. They must be sensitiveto changing community needs andadapt readily to those needs.Individuals capable of continuing theireducational development should be ,given the opportunity to improve theirskills. Finally, to continue to meet itsresponsibilities in changing times, thecollege system must guard againststagnation. Creativity and flexibilityare therefore fostered at the Districtlevel and on each campus.LEAGUE FOR INNOVATIONThe Dallas County CommunityCollege District is a member of theLeague for Innovation in theCommunity College. The League iscomposed of 17 outstandingcommunity college districtsthroughout the nation. Its purpose isto encourage innovativeexperimentation and the continuingdevelopment of the communitycollege movement in America.Membership commits the District toresearch, evaluation, and cooperationwith other community collegedistricts.

Existing administrativeprocedures of the College are used tohandle student grievances. When astudent believes a condition of theCollege is unfair or discriminatory,the student can appeal to theadministrator in charge of that area.Appeals to higher administrativeauthority are considered on themerits of the case.
