Beginning January 1995, a new acting-president was appointed to administer the college. By that date, of course, the Report was written, save for a few, incomplete points. Consequently, throughout this Report, unless clearly indicated otherwise, all references to the college president, his practices, policies, and plans and to the college administration are to the previous president and his administration.

The editor wishes to thank especially Mark Pracher, Dean Carlotta Tronto, Dr. Paul Dillon, Mary Zarlenga, John Cantley, and Shari Borchetta for contributions to this Report far exceeding those either expected or hoped for. We would also like to thank Dr. Barry Logan and the Standard Eight Committee of Pierce College for their gracious assistance with the district portion of standard eight.

The following abbreviations have been used for ease of citation within the text:

1) (Res.); this in addition to a number identifies supporting documents in the section,

Responses to Recommendations from the Most Recent Evaluation.

2) (CD.); in addition to a number identifies common documents, those cited frequently throughout the Report.

3) All other documents cited are referred to first by the number of the standard, followed the number indicating the sequential order of citation within that standard: (l.1), (1.2), etc.

4) All acronyms have been used only after giving first the full name or title, excepting those assumed to be common knowledge, such as EOP&S.
