Leadership
MEET VICK
As a child of refugees, and as the designated cultural and linguistic interpreter for my parents, my propensity to serve immigrant populations and communities of color started from a young age. I directly relate to the communities that we serve at City College, because I have lived their experience.
Whether I was assisting my parents in their ESL homework from City College, attending City College classes as a high schooler, returning to City College to find a new career in my mid-20s, or trying to balance full-time labor intensive jobs while taking classes, I have allowed these experiences to ground my work in student advocacy.
We believe in a City College that keeps the COMMUNITY in community college by
-
providing workforce training, AA/AS degrees, transfers, cultural enrichment, civic engagement, and lifelong learning
-
supporting immigrant, BIPOC, and LGBTQ communities
-
valuing the people who do the work to support students
To promote GROWTH AND RENEWAL, we must
-
provide user-friendly registration, fully-funded support services, and reliable technology
-
publicize and expand Free City College
-
hire and retain more Black and brown faculty and address systemic racism
-
rescind layoffs of faculty and staff
To commit to FISCAL INTEGRITY we must
-
support Yes on Proposition O to combat underfunding of public education
-
develop a balanced budget through a transparent and inclusive process that puts student learning opportunities first
-
increase enrollment and pursue other revenue sources
To ensure SAFETY & SUSTAINABILITY, we must
-
support proper building ventilation and mask and vaccination mandates
-
increase green, eco-friendly practices
We believe in a DEMOCRACY that promotes
-
college and community coalitions
-
fully-funded, quality public education
