Reflecting on 40 years of service and excellence to the East Valley is an exciting and extremely rewarding activity. Mesa Community College began as a small junior college with outstanding faculty and tremendous community support and has transitioned into an institution that reflects sustained high quality and a desire to respond to community needs.
Mesa Community College provides both transfer education and workforce development. It is an institution that meets students' educational needs and develops their skills and talents. It is an institution that brings together diversity of thought and ideas, age, background, and culture, which helps to create a vibrant, exciting place of learning.
Our recent reaccreditation by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association provided an opportunity for the college to reassess itself, its direction, and its future. The HLC team observed that the Rose Garden at MCC metaphorically represents the college: A place that continues to grow and attract; a place that reflects excellence and virtue; a place that symbolizes cooperation and collaboration; a place that calls to the community and the community responds. Mesa Community College's exciting 40-year history documents the dramatic evolution of our college and serves as a strong foundation for the next 40 years of service and excellence.
