The
Hawaiian-themed gala was held at the Hilton Waterfront Beach
Resort in Huntington Beach, and was attended by more than 200
CCCD staff members, administrators, family, friends and colleagues
from throughout the state. Proceeds from this event benefited
the Coast Community College District Foundation’s Dr. John
D. Renley Faculty Scholarship fund.
Prior to his time at
CCCD, Dr. Renley’s career in education
included serving as a fourth grade teacher, a high school vice principal,
a high school district assistant superintendent, a community college
dean and vice president, and a college professor.
“Dr. Renley has given so much to the Coast Community College
District during his 14 years, it is fitting that we honor him in
a way that continues to help others through his namesake scholarship
fund,” said Dr. William M. Vega, CCCD chancellor.
The event raised money for a new faculty scholarship fund that will
provide means for CCCD faculty to pursue professional development
and research opportunities.
