Rio Hondo College President Selected to Lead Regional Consortium, SanFACC
June 30, 2010
Dr. Ted Martinez, Jr., president/CEO Rio Hondo College has been selected chair of the San Gabriel/Foothill Association of Community Colleges (SanFACC).
Martinez succeeds Dr. John S. Nixon, president of Mt. San Antonio College, and will serve a one-year term.
SanFACC, founded three years ago, is comprised of Chaffey College, Citrus College, Glendale College, Mt. San Antonio College, Pasadena City College and Rio Hondo College.
Martinez’s term as chair comes at a time when SanFACC’s member colleges, as well as those throughout the state, continue to be faced with unprecedented budget challenges.
“The circumstances dictate that we work together to leverage our resources in these dire fiscal times, “Martinez said. “The SanFACC collective approach provides a forum to discuss strategies and opportunities of mutual benefit for all our students, and to speak with a regional voice on critical issues.”
