MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Friends,
Four years ago, Prince George’s Community College and the Prince George’s Community College Foundation, Inc. launched Purpose, People, Possibilities, a comprehensive campaign aimed at raising funds to support the college’s strategic priorities. The campaign was broad, ambitious and required extensive planning, outreach, and support. We strategized to deepen our impact within the community, and asked our stakeholders to join us in providing resources for the next generation of educated and skilled workers in Prince George’s County and the surrounding area.
Our stakeholders did not disappoint us. These next pages reveal the return on investment for the college and the students we serve. You will also notice the many names of individuals, businesses, and community partners who joined us in collectively making a positive impact to transform lives through education. It was important for us to print each name to recognize the overwhelming and generous support that came in so many ways.
Even after more than 55 years of serving Prince George’s County, we remain grounded in our core mission to provide a quality education that prepares individuals for employment and career advancement, readies students for successful transfer to colleges and universities, promotes lifelong learning, and delivers a skilled workforce that contributes to regional economic development.
Fulfilling our commitment to transform the lives of our diverse student body through Purpose, People, Possibilities represents a worthy moment of celebration not only for Prince George’s Community College, but also for the county, state and region. We stand ready to do more to address the pressing needs within the County—from raising the aspirations of our youth and increasing college completion rates, to filling critical workforce shortages, and removing financial barriers to college.
Thank you for your continual support in helping us reach this milestone. Our journey is not yet over, and this achievement gives us hope that our future endeavors are attainable.
Sincerely,
Charlene M. Dukes

MAKING AN IMPACT
A Campaign for a State-of-the-Art Teaching and Learning Environment to Transform Lives
A visit to Prince George’s Community College is evocative of a four-year institu-tion, as the college has distinguished itself in many ways:
•TwicehasbeennamedaNational Center of Academic Excellence in Information Security for Two-Year Education by the National Security Agency and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for the periods 2010–2015 and 2015–2020.
•Openedthefirstmiddlecollegeinthestateof Maryland in 2011, in partnership with the Prince George’s County Public Schools—The Academy of Health Sciences at Prince George’s Community College. The 2013 opening of the Information Technology Early College (ITEC), now gives the college the distinction of being the only community college in the state serving students through two innovative early college programs.
•In 2011, the college and its president, Dr. Charlene M. Dukes, were named White House Champions of Change for their commit-ment to improving completion rates, espe-cially among disadvantaged students, and for their sector-based partnerships.
•Community College Week published its annual “Top 100” list featuring the best two and four-year institutions for degrees in a variety of disciplines. Prince George’s Community College landed two positions on the 2014 list ranking at number 18 and number 61,
respectively, in categories that highlight the top two-year schools for minority students and African American students, respectively.
Community colleges play an important role in American higher education. They enroll almost half of all U.S. undergraduate students and are essential for workforce training and retraining. Indeed, community colleges have been cited by the White House as an integral part of a national strategy to regain global leadership in the production of college graduates. On the state level, Maryland community colleges have signed “A Promise to Act,” with the goal of increasing substantially the number of Marylanders with postsecondary credentials by 2025.
Purpose, People, Possibilities:
Special Edition | Progressions 3 www.pgcc.edu/go/foundation
In order to remain competitive, Prince George’s Community College must continue to respond to the changing landscape in higher education. This means remaining responsive to the new markets of learners of all ages who are motivated by career changes, personal interests, development, and who are in need of flexible learning modalities.
Today’s learners demand that education be individually customized rather than pro-vided in lockstep with students of varying preparation, learning style preference, and expectation. They expect the time, place, and pace of education to be at the convenience of the learner, not the provider, to facilitate bal-ancing work, family, and personal demands with learning. They are also less concerned about mastering a predetermined volume of content, much of which will soon be obso-lete as new content is generated, than they are about acquiring work-related skills that will decidedly improve their employment and earning prospects.
Purpose, People, Possibilities engaged all stakeholders in a comprehensive campaign to support three of the institutional priorities of the college:
•Academic and workforce development programs that prepare students for high-demand jobs
•Scholarships and services that maximize access for a broad range of students with diverse needs
•Technology, equipment, and furnishings to support state-of-the-art teaching and learning
To address these challenges and opportu-nities, in 2010, Prince George’s Community College and the Prince George’s Community College Foundation, Inc. launched Purpose, People, Possibilities, a campaign that initially sought to engage all stakeholders in a col-laborative effort to raise $25 million to sus-tain the level of excellence the college had achieved by supporting three institutional

priorities: academic and workforce develop-ment programs; scholarships and services; and technology, equipment, and furnishings. The campaign exceeded these goals and has directly enhanced the sustainability of the college’s leading edge in transforming stu-dents’ lives in an environment that facilitates teaching and learning in the digital age.

MAKING AN IMPACT
Janet C. Lane was a member of the Prince George’s Community College family—most known for her dedicated service to the Prince George’s Community College Foundation Board of Directors for four consecutive terms. Prior to becoming a foundation board member, Janet got to know the college in the best way possible—as a student. She was a lifelong learner and often shared that she viewed the college as one of her most valued resources in honing her gifts in music and writing. Having firsthand experience is what made Janet an effective board member who left a sustainable mark on the Prince George’s Community College Foundation.
Janet joined the Prince George’s Commun-ity College Foundation Board of Directors during a time when the foundation was reorganizing to better serve the college and students. During this time of transition, the leadership benefitted from Janet’s awareness of her community, understanding of her pro-fession—public relations—and expertise in ensuring that the foundation was connected to the community. On the board, Janet had a consistent message: As the college contin-ues to educate the community at the highest level possible, the college must not neglect the need for a well developed communications plan so that the good work of Prince George’s Community College is not a best kept secret.
Her contributions to the board were numerous. Most notably, Janet was a mem-ber of the Allocations Committee and helped to institute a grants program that provides funding to faculty and staff to develop and pilot innovative teaching and learning projects. Janet also introduced the concept for the Partners for Success Awards Dinner, now one of the foundation’s most successful outreach programs that recognizes individuals and entities that demonstrate shared responsibility for education. Janet’s presence will be missed by her Prince George’s Community College family and the contributions she made will be evident for many years to come.
In Memory of Janet C. Lane
Improving Lives, Realizing PossibilitiesThe Prince George’s Community College Foundation’s board of directors, a dedi-cated Campaign Leadership Team, and numerous volunteers were honored to serve as advocates for the college and its Purpose, People, Possibilities comprehensive campaign. Undergirded by the many notable accomplishments of the faculty, staff and stu-dents, Purpose, People, Possibilities raised more than $31 million to date for Prince George’s Community College, making it the college’s largest and most ambitious fundraising campaign to date.
The campaign was a demonstration of public and private sector support for Prince George’s Community College. Contributions reflect confidence in the work of the college, which is first and foremost a community institution. Donors do not have to look far to witness the direct impact of gifts made to the foundation. You can see it at work each time a student completes another semester, earns a
degree or certificate, or begins employ-ment. Funds raised through philanthropic efforts—donations from individuals, corpo-rations, private and corporate foundations, and organizations and associations—total $9 million and will strengthen existing pro- grams and services, support the creation of new initiatives, and provide material support for technology and infrastructure needs.

Faculty, along with related Workforce Development and Continuing Education institutes at Prince George’s Community College, are meeting the workforce demands of the region by providing education that is innovative and valued. Unrestricted dol-lars will support the establishment of a new Center for Faculty Innovation to help the college build upon its capacity to deliver programs that respond to the needs of the
labor market. Based on best or new promis-ing practices, the center will enable research-based projects that seek to advance student knowledge and skills using nontraditional teaching methods, instructional technology in the classroom, and interdivisional collabo-ration on projects that enhance teaching and learning across multiple disciplines.
PROGRAMS
Leading the Way
Dual EducationPrince George’s Community College and the county’s public schools are engaged in an innovative program that allows moti-vated high school students opportunities to work toward both their high school diploma and a two-year associate degree at the same time, making early access to college a real-ity for more families. Through initiatives such as the Academy of Health Sciences at Prince George’s Community College (AHS@PGCC) and the Prince George’s Community College Information Technology Early College (ITEC), high school students are exposed to career paths that are in high demand and that offer growth in jobs in health care and information technology, respectively.
The AHS@PGCC opened in 2011 as the first middle college in Maryland to serve its first 100 students. In June of 2015, this inaugural class will graduate with not only their high school diploma, but also an associate degree, affording them the opportunity to transfer to a college or university with general requirements for a four-year degree.
The college also partners with Chesapeake Math and IT Academy in Laurel, Maryland to build a seamless STEM pipeline—put-ting young students on the path to earn degrees and valuable credentials that lead to rewarding, in-demand jobs.

Programs
“Program funding opportunities for the campaign had to meet three critical criteria. They had to be innovative, catalytic, and transformative.”
Cheryl K. Green Director of Grants and Resource Development Prince George’s Community College
Information Technology & CyberSecurity
A grant from the National Science Foundation established the National CyberWatch Center at Prince George’s Community College, a consortium of more than 80 colleges, uni-versities and businesses committed to advanc-ing cybersecurity education to strengthen the national cybersecurity workforce. The Center focuses on all levels—from elemen-tary through graduate school, but especially the community college level—with emphasis on building program, faculty, and student capacity by fostering collaborations based on models of excellence.
Where Innovation Meets Transformation
Partnerships with companies like Lockheed Martin and organizations like the Maryland Business Roundtable for Education are critical to ensuring that curriculum for PGCC’s Informa-tion Technology Early College (ITEC) initiative, funded by two grants from the Maryland State Department of Education totaling $1.2M, is relevant to the hiring needs for current and future in-demand jobs.
Special Edition | Progressions 7 www.pgcc.edu/go/foundation
PROGRAMS
Creating the Labor Force of the Future: Workforce Development ProgramsForty-seven percent of the employment opportunities available in Maryland are considered “middle skill” jobs—those that require education beyond high school, but not a bachelor’s degree. The college is addressing this need, and boasts a remarkable record in doing so.
Federal, state and local government grants, as well as contributions from corporations and corporate foundations, totaling more than $18M helped the college develop
education and career training programs to increase the pipeline of students to compete for today’s high growth, mid-to-high skill jobs in industries such as healthcare, infor-mation technology and cybersecurity. These projects fostered partnerships with busi-ness and industry to increase the earning potential of low-wage, low-skill workers and expand competency-based accelerated train-ing pathways to in-demand jobs. Students benefit from more defined career pathways
and stackable credential options that ulti-mately enable access to job-relevant basic skills education and training to move up the career ladder into better-paying jobs that employers within the region are looking to fill.
Additionally, corporate funds helped stu-dents gain relevant skills through numerous experiential and service learning opportunities for students, from business plan competitions to community education on issues important to Prince George’s County residents.
Businesses Partner with the College to Support the Growth of the CountyThe Business Leadership Council (BLC) of Prince George’s Community College was formed for the purpose of working in partnership with the college to support the growth of the county through philan-
thropic support for workforce development training initiatives.
Members of the BLC, who represent various industries, advise on industry trends and ad- vancements that can be incorporated into
existing course curriculum with the goal of pre-paring students for success in the workplace. These leaders also generously give of their time on industry advisory boards and serve as guest lecturers when needed.

“Our partnership is extremely beneficial and collaborative. The college provides the education and training in the classroom, and in turn, BLC members offer practical guidance, opportunities for hands-on experience for students and philanthropic support. Together we are training and developing job-ready future leaders.”

SCHOLARSHIPS & SERVICES
Maximizing Access for a Broad Range of Students with Diverse NeedsCollege completion is impacted far too often by financial need. Research shows that students who receive scholarships are more likely to persist in classes and complete their programs of study. Thanks to the generosity of partners and friends, more students, who might otherwise worry about how they will be able to pay for college, are able to attend Prince George’s Community College. Additionally, scholarships designated for students seeking careers in high-growth fields contribute toward creating a pipeline of qualified applicants for the region’s most in-demand jobs. Carly Hresko knew she wanted to become a
nurse when her younger brother developed a bone infection. A nurse came to her home to care for him. Carly was intrigued with how she helped him and educated her family. Also, when her aunt suffered a brain aneurysm, her bedside nurse demonstrated the utmost compassion, comfort and peace as she attended to her aunt’s immediate medical needs.

Shannon is currently at the University of Miami in the PhD Clinical-Health Psychology Program with a McKnight Doctoral Fellowship.
“Shannon Chiles exemplifies the highest standard that can be achieved by students who work hard and take advantage of all the resources the college has to offer,” said Linda Forman, alumni association president, Prince George’s Community College. “Her accomplishments make her a great role model for our current students as they pursue their academic goals,” she added.

Specialized Student Support Prince George’s Community College serves a diverse population of more than 40,000 stu-dents who represent 103 countries through-out the world. Support services aimed at ensuring that students complete degrees, certificates, and preparation courses for certifications and licensures are crucial for underserved student populations that require more assistance or guidance. Optimizing con-ditions for student achievement and success that address the unique needs of subgroups of learners, to include international students, veterans, and students with disabilities, is an ongoing effort.
Serving Diverse NeedsThrough the college’s Veterans Upward Bound initiative, funded by a grant from United States Department of Education, adult learners who have served in the Armed Forces—Prince George’s Community College students and others—are getting the compre-hensive assistance and support they need to transition successfully to academic settings. In addition to academic and career advising, veterans also receive counseling to address unique needs of this population, such as post-traumatic stress as a result of service in combat zones.
A $300,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice Office on Violence against Women established a Violence Prevention Center (VPC) at Prince George’s Community College to reduce domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking on campus. The VPC is a cross-campus, cross-community, collaborative effort that includes community partners from the Prince George’s County Office of the Sheriff, Office of the State’s Attorney of Prince George’s County, and domestic violence and advocacy nonprofits. The VPC project also develops culturally-sensitive prevention and response protocols to meet the needs of victims from underserved populations such as LGBT students, foreign-born, disabled, and veterans.

TECHNOLOGY, EQUIPMENT & FURNISHINGS
Essential to maintaining academic excel-lence is an environment that supports inno-vative teaching and learning. With funding designated for technology, equipment and furnishings, Prince George’s Community College will create spaces that foster col-laboration among students and faculty, both within a specific program or across two or more disciplines. This type of collaboration is not contained to classrooms. It must be accessible to students 24/7 in order to meet the ongoing needs of today’s learners.
Technology’s Effect on Student Retention and Completion
A grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation enabled the recent launch of an Integrated Planning and Advising Services (IPAS) initiative designed to strengthen the college’s technology platform and business operations in a manner that significantly improves student retention and comple-tion. Through various web-enabled modules,
students have immediate online access to program specific advising, course selection, registration, targeted support services, com-prehensive coaching, and progress toward educational goals.
Overall, the integration of these mod-ules facilitates optimal communication and response time among students, advisors and faculty. Students can now make appointments for advising and other student services elec-tronically through the internet, thus making it more convenient for students to get the ser-vices they need in a more timely way. Advisors are able to offer more comprehensive services that include providing ongoing feedback, and assisting students with creating personalized action plans for educational success. For fac-ulty, IPAS has resulted in an improved user interface to the college’s retention alert process to facilitate earlier identification of at-risk stu-dents and more timely referrals to resources for coaching, follow-up, and resolution.
Enhancing Technology and Infrastructure
Remodeled Tennis Courts Opened Spring 2014 Sloane Stephens planted the first shovel to refurbish eight tennis courts at Prince George’s Community College, two of which were designed specifically for youth players, through American Express and the United States Tennis Association’s (UTSA) Fresh Courts program. The college's partnership with the Prince George’s County Tennis and Education Foundation, was instrumental in it being selected to participate in the Fresh Courts program.
Within the last six years the college has seen the completion of two new, modern facilities: the Center for Advanced Technol-ogy and the Center for Health Studies. There are several more developments underway including a brand new Culinary Arts Center, renovation and expansion of Lanham Hall and the Queen Anne Arts Educa-tion Center, a renovation of the Rennie Forum auditorium, and a health and wellness center. The college partners with corporations and other organizations to remain a cutting edge, inven-tive, and prime venue for quality education in the community it serves.

Queen Anne Arts Education Center
The Queen Anne Arts Education Center project will renovate approximately 33,455 square feet and add approximately 136,545 square feet to the existing Queen Anne Fine Arts Center. The project will provide spaces for a new dance major in the theatre curricu-lum, and drastically expand spaces to improve and transform music, theatre, speech, televi-sion, radio, and film curriculum on campus.
Beyond standard offices and classrooms, the Center will feature an 800-seat theatre, a 250-seat proscenium theatre, a 200-seat black box studio, instructional theatre and educational technology labs, flexible performance and instructional spaces, radio, television and film broadcast and production labs, a 125-seat recital hall, band and rehearsal space, dance studios, and an art gallery.
Culinary Arts Center
The Culinary Arts program will leave their current location at John E. Howard Elementary School in Capitol Heights Maryland and relocate to a brand new Culinary Arts Center at PGCC’s main cam-pus in Largo. The design for the new center began in November 2013 and construction
is estimated to commence in the spring of 2015. The 10,000 square foot, state-of-the-art edifice will provide a professional instruc-tional facility equipped with dining and serv-ing areas, a production kitchen, culinary lab, bakery, classrooms, and faculty offices.
Rennie Forum
Currently under construction, Rennie Forum is being renovated to modernize the space and to provide a more technologically advanced facility. The reconstructed auditorium will be optimally engineered to accommodate lectures, department meetings, training seminars, academic instruction, theatrical
and musical performances, and film/cinema screenings. It will include a green room, a guest presenter washroom, and an ADA lift to make the new Rennie Forum stage wheelchair accessible. The venue is estimated to reopen Winter 2014.
Lanham Hall
The Lanham Hall renovation and addition, scheduled to begin in the spring of 2015, will transform and repurpose the existing classroom building, originally constructed in the late 1960’s, into a modern new facility to serve Prince George’s Community College and improve the overall student and faculty experience. The project will renovate the
existing 77,249 square feet and construct a 10,777 square foot addition to the building with a 150-seat lecture hall, green roofs, vast glass curtain wall systems, a grand staircase, and a three-story monumental glass enclosure.
