Welcome from the Superintendent/President
The Chaffey College Governing Board, faculty and staff are dedicated to helping you succeed. This student planner, made available to you by the Office of Student Life, is one of the many tools available to assist you on your academic journey. In this planner, you will find helpful phone numbers, information on our new academic and career communities and much more.
Education transforms lives, and we believe this so strongly that it is part of Chaffey College’s vision statement. Our work to help students succeed has earned us national recognition, and generous state and federal grants. We even received a $25 million gift from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott this year - the largest donation in the college’s history – because she supports what we do to help students. I am confident that our students will reap the benefits of this gift for many years to come.
When you walk across the stage at commencement, we know that you will be well- prepared for the workforce or to transfer to a university to continue your educational journey.
That is because Chaffey College has world-class, dedicated faculty members who worked in the professions that they now teach. And we have staff members who are here to support you every step of the way – whether you need tutoring, financial aid or tips on building a resume. Please take advantage of all the services Chaffey has to offer because it will help you cross the finish line and to the next chapter of your lives.
Have a wonderful 2021-2022 academic year, Panthers!
Henry D. Shannon, Ph.D. Superintendent/President
