President's message

As president of Vancouver Community College, I extend my warmest greetings to the new students joining us this fall, and welcome back to our returning students, faculty and staff.
With September nearly upon us, our Broadway and Downtown campuses shift out of summer mode and become lively hubs of activity and excitement. With new classes, new faces and plenty of events, this is a great time to make connections and build community.
