Gavilan and Hartnell colleges have been awarded a $3.5 million five-year grant through Title V of the Federal Higher Education Act. The grant will strengthen academic programs by establishing Student Access and Success Research Centers at each college to serve as the coordination points and clearinghouses for curriculum development, student learning outcome development, activity implementation, faculty training, student assessment, data tracking and evaluation.
The collaboration will work to improve student retention and persistence in English as a second language and English courses. Gavilan and Hartnell serve similar student bodies and have a history of working collaboratively to share ideas and best practices.
