Caitlin Hickcox

ESOL Faculty, MSCF Union appointed faculty Tri-Chair

"I am committed to this process because this is our chance to have our voices heard as we move through periods of change and exciting challenges. The knowledge we have of our students, our curriculums, and our school environment will be invaluable as we determine the next steps for SCTCC."

Wendy Knapek

"I am part of the Strategic Planning Committee because when we work together we can make it happen! Pulling together multiple voices with multiple backgrounds for the common good of the college strengthens our foundation for our future."

Bretta Edwards

Registrar, Staff Tri-Chair

"This is is the start of my 6th year on campus. Over the years I have seen change happen on our campus, shifts in our vision, and continuous commitment to our students and the betterment of our campus community. I have not necessarily felt I was truly aware of how my day-to-day work was a part of the College’s past strategic plan. One of my goals is to become a communication vessel to the campus to make sure we all feel a part of this round of strategic planning. Perhaps even more important to me, is for folks to know after it’s done how their work is a part of the plans we create."
