We prioritize applicants who demonstrate they understand the benefits a diverse student population brings to a community college. The successful candidate will be an equity-minded leader committed to student success achieved through collaboration with faculty, classified staff, administration, students and community partners who are also dedicated to closing equity gaps.

An equity-minded individual is a person who:

• Understands the importance of holding ourselves accountable as educators for closing equity gaps and engaging in equitable practices;
• Reframes inequities as a problem of practice and views the elimination of inequities as an individual and collective responsibility;
• Encourages positive race-consciousness and embraces human difference;
• Supports institutional practices that both develop and sustain culturally responsive teaching and learning environments; and
• Strategically builds support for and participation in equity-related initiatives across both our internal and external communities.

Madera Community College seeks leaders who value placing the student at the center of everything we do, mentorship and working in a collegial, collaborative environment. Leaders should be open and willing to participate in culturally relevant professional development that will help them prepare for the population of students who attend Madera Community College.

The ideal candidate will share Madera Community College’s commitment to educating its racially and socioeconomically diverse student population. For the  academic year, we enrolled over 13,000 students in which 69% identify as Latinx, 11% as Asian/Pacific Islander, 3% as Black/African American, 16% as White, 1% as American Indian/Alaska Native, and 2% as multiracial. Madera Community College is a Hispanic-Serving Institution, reflecting the great responsibility that the College has to the educational attainment and economic well-being of the surrounding community.

The successful candidate will join a college dedicated to the students it serves.
