The Board of Education acknowledges the need to remove barriers to the recruitment, retention, and advancement of students, faculty, and staff from historically marginalized populations who are currently underrepresented, this is of particular importance for those positions in the upper levels of administration.

The Board commits to use best practices to recruit a diverse pool of candidates for President and ensure the process does not exclude or discourage any candidates.

Board Policies are adopted by the Lane Community College Board of Education and establish the College’s governing principles and institutional direction. These policies are reviewed by the Board at least every five years or more often as needed. Board Policies are distinct from College Operating Policies and Procedures (COPPS), which provide operational guidance and are developed through governance processes and by responsible managers.
