This is an exciting time for the College, characterized by new energy, a progressive outlook, an intentional focus on student success and equitable outcomes, and a hunger for dynamic partnerships and system to strengthen our organizational effectiveness. Dr. Falecia D. Williams, President, joined the PGCC community in August 2020 and is engaging the College’s internal community and external stakeholders in developing a new vision and strategic imperatives for the work.

The Vice President of Student Affairs will report directly to President Williams, serve as a member of the Senior Team, represent the College’s posture on the student experience in state-level meetings, and operate as a trusted advisor and advocate for the highest quality for student services. The ability to cultivate and sustain positive relationships with staff, campus leaders, and peers, coupled with an unwavering passion for the mission of community college, will be prominent in the chosen candidate’s portfolio of achievements.
