Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges visits Hartnell

Barbara Beno and Susan Clifford, president and vice president of the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, will make a presentation to the Hartnell Board of Trustees at 5 pm. today, July 16.

Beno and Clifford will focus their presentation on accreditation standards and the role the trustees play in the accreditation process. The meeting will take place in Building B, room 208 of Hartnell, 411 Central Ave., Salinas. 

Hartnell was placed on probation earlier this month by the ACCJC. The college community will have to address 12 recommendations in the upcoming two years to have its probationary status lifted. While on probation, the school remains fully accredited, so the students education is not in jeopardy.

The college has put together answers to frequently asked questions. You can see them here and here.
