San Diego City College is a multicultural institution committed to
providing open access to all who benefit from instruction and to meeting
the diverse and ever-changing educational, cultural, and economic needs
of the inner city and surrounding communities of San Diego. As City
College prepares world citizens in the 21st century, we recognize that
the aim of education is the development of the whole person, who is
prepared to value citizenship and to participate in a global community.
To improve access and achieve excellence, we acknowledge and affirm
teaching and learning as our highest priority. We recognize that
citizens in a free society must cherish and protect the tradition of
academic freedom and responsibility. We further believe that people are
our greatest resource and we are committed to developing an environment
that cultivates learning, understanding, and respect for students,
faculty, staff, and the community.
