Mt. SAC Dedicates New Science Complex
New complex is the crown jewel among community college science programs
With local legislators, school district officials, and the College community on hand, Mt. SAC
held a formal dedication ceremony for its new Natural Sciences Complex on Friday, Nov. 6.
“As a learning environment, the new science complex stands alone among the state’s
community college science facilities in terms of size, scope, and state-of-the-art technology,”
said Natural Sciences Dean Larry Redinger. “The synergy of the future is in these buildings.”
More than 12 years in the making and over 250,000 square feet, the four-building $79.1-million
complex was completed in several phases and includes the Science Laboratory Building (60), the Bio-Chem
Lecture Building (7), the Science Lecture Building (11), and the Math and Science Instructional
Center (61). The complex is the result of years of collaborative planning by faculty,
administration, staff, and students.
“With the opening of the Math and Sciences building last spring, we finished the process to
unify all the math and all the science instruction in single area, a process that was
conceptualized in 1996,” Redinger said.
The complex houses the disciplines of astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth sciences,
engineering, mathematics, physics, and histotechnology. It is home to over 90 full-time
professors, 120 adjunct professors, and 20% of Mt. SAC’s student population.
Some of the other unique features of the complex include a
state-of the-art instrumentation lab in the Bio-Chem Lecture Building, several
student study areas and a robotics room for physics students in the Math and
Science Instructional Center, and a cadaver lab for anatomy classes in the
Science Laboratory Building.
The dedication was followed by a celebration of the life of former

Trustees Chen Haggerty and Hall Reelected
Trustees Judy Chen-Haggerty and Dr. David K. Hall were recently congratulated at a campus reception
for their reelection to the Board of Trustees for four-year terms. Chen Haggerty received 26,403 votes
for 42.3% of the ballots, while Hall garnered 24,538 votes for 39.3% of the ballots. They join three
other publicly elected trustees (Fred Chyr, Dr. Manuel Baca, and Rosanne Bader) as well as a student trustee, Xavier Padilla.
First elected in 2001, Chen Haggerty has completed two terms on the Board. Currently she is board
vice president. Professionally she is a managing director/attorney for the law offices of Edward J.
Haggerty, P.C. A Rowland Heights resident for over 25 years, she is also a law professor at Rio Hondo
College and the University of Phoenix. In the community, Chen Haggerty has served on the boards of
directors for the Mt. SAC Foundation, Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital, American Red Cross, the
La Puente Valley Regional Occupational Program, FORUS Foundation (Rowland Unified School
District) and the Rowland Heights Chinese Association.
Hall begins a fourth term and now heads the board as president. He holds the distinction as the
longest-serving Mt. SAC trustee (since 1995). Professionally, Hall is senior vice president of
Hitchcock Automotive Resources in City of Industry, one of the nation’s largest privately owned
retail automotive groups. He also chairs the Human Resources and Security Management
Committee for the Industry Manufacturers Council and is president of the Southern California
Agriculture and Nutrition Foundation. In the community, he serves on the San Gabriel Valley
YMCA board and supports a wide variety of local service, business and community groups.
Trustees Approve $140.9-Million Budget
Budget forecasts $11-million shortfall in 2009-10
At its September meeting, the Board of Trustees approved the college’s 2009-10 budget, a $140.9-million budget that assumes a
$4.6-million cut in apportionment, a projected $5.1-million deficit, and an additional $6.5 million in cuts to categorical programs for
an overall shortfall in revenues of $11 million. Cuts in state funding, property tax deficits, an enrollment fee deficit, and fewer lottery
dollars have all hurt Mt. SAC.
The latest hit to the college’s budget was the July 28 state budget revision, which resulted in a $4.6-million reduction in Mt. SAC’s base
apportionment. Also budgeted was $3.8 million in one-time expenditures that include $1 million for the Board of Trustees November
election, $1.6 million in carryover budgets from 2008-09, and $1.2 million for support of categorical programs. The adopted budget
also forecasts no growth funding and no cost of living allowance (COLA) for 2009-10.
However, Mt. SAC is fortunate to have a large Unrestricted General Fund reserve of $27.2 million, a 18.26% reserve balance. The
college will be able to offset the shortfall in state funding with reserves this year, but similar funding in subsequent years will be
problematic. Mt. SAC’s current policy requires a 10% reserve.
Meanwhile in a response to financial downturn, Mt. SAC has implemented a qualified hiring freeze and has been looking at ways to
make the college more efficient. This fall, the college administration also began taking employee suggestions for ways Mt. SAC could
operate more efficiently.
The 2009-10 adopted budget stands in stark contrast to the college’s budgets in
recent years. For the past four years, Mt. SAC has enjoyed budget surpluses,
including a $7.5-million surplus for 2007-08 and a $400,000 surplus for
2008-09.
The college expects state funding to be a question mark throughout the
remainder of this year and over the next few years, in which multimillion-dollar
deficits may be likely.
First of the Row Buildings Comes Down Construction begins on the future Design Technology Center After more than a decade of planning, the first three of Mt. SAC’s row buildings were finally demolished this fall to make room for the new Design Technology Center. To some, the row buildings, which have been a part of the Mt. SAC landscape and for more than 56 years, were the symbolic core of classroom instruction on campus. Built in 1949 and 1953, the row buildings housed everything over the years from history and foreign language classrooms and office space to biology and English. Planned for demolition since the college’s first attempt at a facilities bond measure in 1997, the row buildings 13, 14, 15 succumbed to the construction excavators in September. A groundbreaking for the future Design Technology Center was held in October. The center should open in spring 2011. “This is going to be a state-of-the-art facility that will allow our design-based programs to be in close proximity to each other, creating a synergy for our students,” said Arts Dean Sue Long, whose division will share the facility with related disciplines from other divisions. One of the last projects to be funded by Mt. SAC’s Measure R facilities bond, the $24.8-million Design Technology Center project will consolidate the college’s computer-based design programs such as Animation and Graphic Design, Architecture and Interior Design, Photography and Computer Graphics, and Web Design. The 69,000-square-foot facility will feature advanced computer systems and state-of the-art technology to accommodate these programs. The project will also include several student-orientated areas and an open computer lab to encourage collaboration conducive to various modes of learning. It will also have a built-in gallery area that will enable our students to exhibit their work and get feedback from their peers. “Everyone in the building will also have access to an open multi-discipline media lab, which will generate optional possibilities for multi-discipline interaction and learning,” said Business Dean John Heneise.

College Mourns the Loss of Jay Devers
The Mt. SAC family continues to mourn the loss of Auxiliary Services Administrative Director Jay Devers, 54, who passed away
suddenly on Nov. 24. Friends and family packed the chapel of Todd Mortuary in Pomona on Dec. 1 and afterwards gathered at a
reception at Founders Hall to share memories and remember him for his competent leadership and down-to-earth nature.
“During his tenure, Jay was an excellent representative of Auxiliary Services to the campus and of Mt. SAC to the community,” said
President John Nixon. “He was an integral part of the Mt. SAC family and was a key contributor to our management team.”
Jay joined Mt. SAC in 2002 to oversee Auxiliary Services, which comprises the merchandizing and revenue centers of the college,
including all food and beverage concessions and the SacBookRac. Those who worked closely with him remember Jay as a friendly
and good-natured colleague.
“Jay was an outstanding member of the Mt. SAC family,” said Administrative Services VP Mike Gregoryk. “I always found Jay to be
open, trustworthy, honest and caring about others. I am proud he was part of my team, and he will be missed.”
"Jay was not only my manager for six years but a mentor and friend who was always available to listen to my
problems and concerns," says Bursar's Office Manager Sheree Culross. "I will miss our Monday morning talks
and the sound of his cowboy boots in the hallway."
"I believe Jay worked as he lived--a kind, generous man with a contagious smile," said Suzane Leutjen,
SacBookRac director. "He always worked the 'register line' in the bookstore during
the first week of classes, and he loved to talk to the students in line. He knew many
of the students from having worked at Walnut High School. Students and bookstore
staff had become accustomed to seeing him at the head of the line, so we'll miss
seeing him there in the coming semesters."
“He was a people-type of person and was always in a positive frame of mind,” said
Bookstore Shipping & Receiving Supervisor Don Haggard. “He was very helpful and
would never hesitate to lend a hand in any type of project.”
Prior to Mt. SAC, Jay was an administrator and coach at Walnut High School for
20 years. He was involved in many organizations, including local chambers of
commerce. He was also an avid Mason and was in line to head the Cryptic
Masons of California, as his father did years ago. Jay is survived by his mother, a
son and daughter, as well as other relatives, colleagues and friends in the
community and at Mt. SAC.
Accreditation Self-Study Draft Available for Review
Mt. SAC’s Self-Study for Reaffirmation of Accreditation has completed the campuswide review process. Many faculty, staff and
students provided valuable feedback about the document.
The Self-Study is the end product of the college’s self-evaluation process that assessed the quality of instruction, programs, and
services the college provides its students. The analysis, based on a set of rigorous standards, was compiled in the 300-page self-study
document. More than 30 Mt. SAC faculty, administrators, staff, and students worked on the college’s Self-Study report.
Compiled in anticipation of the college’s next accreditation team visit in October 2010, the Self-Study is the result of a year of hard
work by the campus accreditation standard teams. It is divided into four parts or standards: Institutional Mission and Effectiveness,
Student Learning Programs and Services, Resources, and Leadership and Governance. Accreditation, a process which occurs for
colleges every six years, is a college’s good housekeeping seal of approval.
Copies of the draft document are available online at www.mtsac.edu/administration/accreditation/2010self_study.html or as paper
copies from Self-Study co-chairs Kristina Allende and Barbara McNeice-Stallard. Revisions will be made, based on feedback from
the internal review. The document will then be finalized for design and publication.
College Aviation Turns 20
Flight school remains the only one of its kind in the state
College Aviation, Mt. SAC’s flight school operating out Brackett Field in La Verne, recently celebrated its 20th anniversary and along
with it the distinction of being the only college flight school operating in the state. “We’re still the only college in California that
operates its own flight school,” said aeronautics and transportation co-chair Robert Rogus.
More than 235 students and former students attended the anniversary celebration at Mt. SAC’s James T. Clarke Hangar located on the
grounds of Brackett Field. Open seven days a week, the school provides students with the opportunity to earn their pilot’s license at
roughly a 15-to-20 % discount compared to most local private flight schools.
On average, it takes College Aviation students 65 hours of training to earn their license. Students pay $30 an hour for flight
instruction and between $65 and $105 to rent the aircraft. The total cost for a first license is approximately $8,000––a bargain for the
cost-conscious student.
And while College Aviation is a one-of-a-kind program among California’s colleges, airplanes have been a part of Mt. SAC since the
beginning. “Aviation was here since the first day the college opened,” said Rogus. Airplanes used to take off from and land on what
is now Bonita Drive on the eastern end of campus, and the first college aircraft was purchased by the Pomona Chamber of
Commerce in the late 1940s.
“Before College Aviation was established, Mt. SAC’s airplanes were a private company’s flight line,” said
Rogus.
Fast forward to 20 years ago when aeronautics chair Wayne Lutz had an idea. Lutz spearheaded the
move to establish the College Aviation flight school facility at Brackett. The program grew and soon after
Mt. SAC’s airframe and powerplant (A&P) program also established a base at Brackett when in 1991 the
Clarke Hangar, named after philantropist Sophia Clarke’s son, was dedicated.
Two-and-a-half years ago, College Aviation, which resided on the south end of
Brackett, moved to the Clarke facility where it is today.
Today, Mt. SAC’s aviation program currently has five aircraft––four Cessna
airplanes and a Piper Arrow. There are 300 students enrolled in commercial
pilot courses, 300 students enrolled in air traffic control classes, and 50 students
enrolled in the flight school. But according to Rogus, there could be more.
“We are turning away 30 to 40 % of the students who apply
to our program,” he said.
In the future, College Aviation should purchase two more
aircraft to accommodate the demand, he said.
The Radiologic Technology Program recently
received a donation of new radiographic
positioning books worth a total of $7,671 from
Kaiser Permanente of Baldwin Park. Pictured (l-r)

Mt. SAC Celebrates Disability Diversity
Disabled Student Programs and Services (DSP&S) observed Disability Celebration Month with presentations
and workshops throughout October.
“Disability Celebration Month seeks to dispel the myths about disabilities and to promote the inclusion of
individuals with disabilities in all aspects of society,” said DSP&S Director Grace Hanson.
Workshops offered included presentations on topics such as memory strategies, understanding stuttering,
disabled veterans, universal design, and conversational sign language.
“We have a responsibility to welcome everyone regardless of their disability,” said Hanson.
Mt. SAC has one of the largest Deaf and Hard of Hearing student populations among California’s community colleges. With 140
Deaf and Hard of Hearing students, the college ranks among the top 10 in the state.
DSP&S offers a full range of services for students with physical, sensory and cognitive disabilities. Cognitive disabilities, such as
learning disabilities, can include students of average or above average intelligence who have a
greater than expected difficulty with one or more academic skills. The department offers assessment,
counseling, and instructional strategies to help students.
Extended Opportunity Programs and
Services (EOPS) celebrated its 40th
anniversary in October. EOPS provides
support services for economically and
educationally disadvantaged students.
Student Knows She Can Dance
Dance Dept. Chair Amy Nakamura absolutely knows one of her students can dance.
Pauline Mata, who is a dance student at Mt. SAC, was among the top 20 contestants on season six of Fox’s
“So You Think You Can Dance.”
“She’s somebody you don’t forget,” Nakamura said. “She has one of those stunning TV personalities, and her
musicality with dance is must amazing. She’s just gorgeous to watch.”
The 19-year-old dancer, who was also a contestant on the television competition in season five, has taken a
series of dance classes at Mt. SAC, including advanced ballet, jazz, and modern dance. According to
Nakamura, she can do 10 pirouettes in a row without stopping.
“She can do everything, which is why I think she’ll be on the show for quite a while,” she said.
Her specialty is jazz, but she is well versed in many dance styles. And while she is
focused on dance, she also finds time to help others and get involved in community
fundraisers.
“Other students look up to her as a role model. She so inspirational,” Nakamura said,
“We have been fortunate at Mt. SAC to have had a lot of great dancers come through
our program, and Pauline is following in that line.”
Mata took the fall semester off to focus on the dance competition.Bridge Program Completes
12th Year On Top
Program enrolls a record number of students for summer and fall
The Summer Bridge Program completed its 12th year at the College while serving a record number of
students in its most recent session. A total of 326 students out 1,000 applicants were accepted into the
six-week program designed to help first-time students make a smooth transition to college life.
“We’ve doubled our program over the last two years,” said Bridge Project/Progam Coordinator Naomi Abesamis.
The Summer Bridge Program helps students acclimate to Mt. SAC and overcome the fear of college. The program bridges the
gap for students by orientating them to the academic and social aspects of college. The program helps students succeed
through the use of learning groups and linked classes to develop a sense of community. It also provides access to other
support services.
This summer, the program included academic classes, field trips to universities, guest speakers, tutoring, parent
orientation, college orientation, and registration assistance. The cohort of academic classes includes LERN 49
& 81, English 67 & 68, and Math 50.
And for the Bridge Program, the records keep rolling in. For this fall semester, the
Bridge Program had 600 students enroll—also a record.
During the fall and spring semesters, the program offers three learning communities:
a Math Bridge, an English Bridge, and a Pre-Nursing Bridge. Each program focuses on
a specific need and has counseling support to assist students.
The program is staffed by four full-time employees, 12 peer
advisors, and six student assistants.

The Performing Arts Center Music Recital Hall was formally dedicated and renamed as the
William H. Feddersen Recital Hall in a ceremony on Saturday, Dec. 5, in front of the recital hall.
The Board of Trustees authorized the name change to acknowledge Dr. Feddersen’s commitment to
the arts and his dedication to the completion of the Performing Arts Center during his presidency.
Dr. Feddersen, who served as Mt. SAC’s sixth president from 1991 to 2002, spearheaded the effort to
update and upgrade facilities on campus. Feddersen’s presidency saw the construction of the first
buildings on the Mt. SAC campus in 25 years, which included the Student Services Center in 1994
and the Performing Arts Center in 1996. He also led the effort to infuse continuous quality
improvement practices as part of the College’s processes, and it was during his presidency that
Mt. SAC’s Measure R facilities bond passed.
The Performing Arts Center had its grand opening in 1996, replacing the out dated music and theater
building, constructed in 1957. The $17-million, 66,770-square-foot center boasts a 400-seat theater,
a 250-seat recital hall, a dance studio, plus classrooms and offices to provide top-notch instruction
in drama, music, and dance.
Although now retired, Dr. Feddersen is still involved with Mt. SAC through his attendance at campus
events and support of student scholarship programs. He is currently
helping to update the Mt. SAC history book, which originally covered the
first 50 years on campus.
Dr. Feddersen shares honor with family,
trustees, President Nixon and colleagues.
