Summary

Porterville College students, as members of the academic community, have the same rights and freedoms that all citizens have as students, and as students they are accountable to federal and state laws and statutes. In addition, students are also accountable to the Kern Community College District policies and individual college campus rules and regulations. Anyone desiring additional information regarding these policies and procedures may contact the Dean of Learning.

The College

Porterville College is committed to providing an educational process to enhance the personal worth and intellectual potential of its students and is also dedicated to producing graduates who are prepared for tomorrow's challenges. Statistics prove that Porterville College students who transfer to a four-year college earn grades that are equal to or better than those earned by students who go directly from high school to a fouryear institution. Our vocational graduates enter the work force with a degree or certificate that means quality training to area employers.
