The Peralta Community College District was featured throughout the September issue of the national magazine, Diverse Issues in Higher Education.
Merritt College President Dr. David M. Johnson is a co-author of a new series that will appear in the magazine called “Behind the Desk: Perspectives of Black Community College CEOs”. He may make it look easy, but he and his co-authors make it clear it is not. Congratulations on the launch of this series!
The issue also included a profile of Chancellor Dr. Tammeil Gilkerson, written by Editor-in-chief Dr. Jamal Watson.
The overall theme of the issue was Higher Education in the Golden State, with a focus on California.
The marketing department, when learning of Dr. Johnson’s series and Chancellor Gilkerson's profile, used the opportunity to place an ad in the magazine to attract employees to our district.
You can find Dr. Johnson’s article and Chancellor Gilkerson's profile article on their website at DiverseEducation.com.
