The WVC Classified Senate remains committed to our students and our community.
As we welcome our new Senators for the 2009-2010 academic year,

The Classified Senate of West Valley College
June 8, 2009
Dear College and District Community,
The West Valley Classified Senate has been recognized by the California Community Colleges Classified Senate (4CS) as a "Model Senate" for 2009.
Model Classified Senates define the standard of staff participation within the learning environment for California community college students;
encourage staff leaders to become stronger, and offer reference and experience for novice organizations and those seeking organizational revitalization.
The Senate also placed first in the Outstanding Website competition, which recognizes excellence in technology use.
The website was judged on overall navigation structure and ease of use; eye catching color and creative use of graphic layout;
inclusion of meeting minutes and other senate documents; and links to classified resources, including the 4CS website.
Senator and Webmaster David Duncan was present at the Classified Leadership Institute awards ceremony to accept this honor on the Senate's behalf,
and is to be commended for his talent and dedication to the project. West Valley graphic artist Carl Jones contributed the photography which so beautifully enhances the website.
The Senate congratulates David and Carl for their remarkable achievement.
Laurel Kinley
