Introduction
The Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) announces an opening for a Theatre (Acting, Directing, Performance) Instructor at Los Angeles Valley College (LAVC). LAVC is a two-year community college located in the heart of the San Fernando Valley and is one of nine colleges in the Los Angeles Community College District. With an enrollment of more than 30,000 students from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, LAVC provides strong transfer, transitional, and career educational programs and is committed to student success.
The College works closely with local secondary institutions to assist high school students in their transition to higher education and maintains strong ties to the business community by providing highly respected job training programs that meet the direct needs of local employers. The college offers 75 associate degree programs, 26 associate degrees for transfer, 83 certificate programs, and continuing education, noncredit, and job training programs.
Today, it has more than 200 full-time faculty and more than 400 part-time instructors. LAVC is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges and is a Hispanic-Serving Institution.
Department
The Department of Theatre & Dance at LAVC consists of 2 full-time faculty members and approximately 10 adjunct faculty. We have a strong commitment to our program and our students.
LAVC's COMMITMENT STATEMENT
As our nation confronts the challenges of systemic racism and the status quo of social injustice, LAVC recognizes that by virtue of our position as an institution of higher education and our role in the community, we have the opportunity and the obligation to be an agent of change in addressing these issues. In response to the uprising and racial reckoning of summer 2020, LAVC began its journey towards being an antiracist institution and reaffirmed our dedication to working towards equity and social change.
Beyond this initial step, we recognize that being antiracist is an ongoing process. We affirm our commitment to consistent action to bring about change.
We join in the LACCD commitment: "As an organization founded on educational excellence, opportunity and access, and dedicated to the principles of equity, justice and community, the Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) must lead by example and make structural and permanent change to root out the ill effects of racism and bias from our classrooms and our workplace."
