The LEAD Academy, created by College President Preston Pulliams, is a yearlong program that identifies and trains up-and-coming leaders in the PCC community. The program is open to staff and faculty from all campuses and centers.
This year’s cohort included Jennifer Alkezweeny, who formerly served as the college’s service learning coordinator but who recently moved to the independent Gateway to College program; Linda Blanchette, staff and organizational development director; Jan Christiansen, contract and grant accounting manager; Gary Eaton, Cascade Campus Technology Department manager; Laura A. Horani, department chair of the English for Speakers of Other Languages Program at both Rock Creek and the Hillsboro Education Center; Kimberly Neuburger, Southeast Center Mathematics Department chair; and Andrew Roessler, training program manager for Career Pathways.
As its primary project, the 2009-10 cohort of the LEAD Academy focused on ways that PCC could better serve students who are or were in foster care services.
