Laughter, dancing, food and ice cream were enjoyed by those in attendance on the lawn in front of the Carmen Castellano Fine Arts Center on March 19.<\/p>\n

SJCC received the official news regarding the Accrediting Commission of Community and Junior Colleges awarding of reaffirmation of accreditation with the Western Association of Schools and Colleges on Feb. 15.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are celebrating for being fully reaffirmed,\u201d said Greg Nelson, vice president administrative services. \u201cIt is a big relief. Turning it around in two years is unheard of in the State of California. Evergreen was also reaffirmed, you can\u2019t find that happening in any district!\u201d<\/p>\n

In a random poll of students taken after the event, only two of 20 students knew of the event and attended. Laurie Chavez, 21,undecided major, and Sergio Marquez, 19, communications major said events such as these should be voted on by the student population when there are educational budget cuts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe kept the cost to a bare minimum, with staff doing all the work, so it\u2019s not costing a lot of money.\u201d Nelson said. \u201cIt\u2019s worth it.\u201d
\nBarbara Kavalier, president of SJCC, said this was the most attended activity by administration, staff and students so far this year. Attendance exceeded expectations since they ran out of food.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the celebration. It\u2019s so much fun being here with my fellow students partying, enjoying the food, ice cream and just celebrating the fact that we are no longer on probation.\u201d said Adam Belardes, 27, communications major. \u201cSJCC is a diverse, amazing school. Go Jags.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe faculty, staff administrators and students have all worked hard to accomplish our reaffirmation.\u201d Kavalier said. \u201cNow we can concentrate on initiatives that will move our college forward.<\/p>\n
