Putting Community Back in College
The Redwoods College District, Area 2 is a jurisdictional region similar to Supervisorial District 2 that provides political representation for an elected trustee to the College of the Redwoods Board of Trustees. Trustees are elected to four year terms by Area. Area 2 currently includes portions of territory within the Fortuna Union High School District including the communities of Fortuna, Rohnerville, Hydesville, Carlotta and Bridgeville; and portions of the territory presently included within the Southern Humboldt Unified School District including the communities of Stafford, Shively Redcrest, Fruitland, Weott, Myers Flat, Miranda, Phillipsville, Redway, Garberville, Benbow, Alderpoint and Blocksburg in Humboldt County.
Learn 2 earn
Reduce student barriers to entry by making CR the most affordable and highest value education in our community. Work with local businesses to identify programs to best serve our evolving economy, leading to the highest paying jobs for our graduates.
Boost the base
Community Colleges are the least funded institutions in higher education. We can boost our college by advocating at state and federal levels for an increase to base funding for our district per full time student. We can’t have equity without equitable funding.
Degrees when due
Reduce delays to completion of 2 year degrees. Pass AB 2738 requiring statewide community colleges to report completion rates every 2 years instead of 6, so the public can understand the feasibility of their own students to complete in a timely manner.
Defend the district
CR is facing challenges like never before, with increasing pension liabilities and deferred maintenance costs. Employees need wages that keep pace with rising inflation. The President/Superintendent needs our support to secure the campus, fund pensions, and fix infrastructure.
