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
Purpose, People, Possibilities:
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 institution, as the college has distinguished itself
in many ways:
•Twice has been named a National 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.
•Opened the first middle college in the state
of 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.

| Special Edition
•In 2011, the college and its president,
Dr. Charlene M. Dukes, were named White
House Champions of Change for their commitment to improving completion rates, especially 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.

MAKING AN IMPACT
To address these challenges and opportunities, 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 collaborative effort to raise $25 million to sustain the level of excellence the college had
achieved by supporting three institutional
priorities: academic and workforce development 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 students’ lives in an environment that facilitates
teaching and learning in the digital age.
Purpose, People, Possibilities engaged
all stakeholders in a comprehensive
campaign to support three of the
institutional priorities of
the college:
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 provided 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 balancing 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 obsolete as new content is generated, than they
are about acquiring work-related skills that
will decidedly improve their employment
and earning prospects.

MAKING AN IMPACT
Improving Lives, Realizing Possibilities
The Prince George’s Community College
Foundation’s board of directors, a dedicated 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 students, 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 employment. Funds raised through philanthropic
efforts—donations from individuals, corporations, private and corporate foundations,
and organizations and associations—total
$9 million and will strengthen existing programs and services, support the creation of
new initiatives, and provide material support
for technology and infrastructure needs.

In Memory of Janet C. Lane
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.

| Special Edition
Janet joined the Prince George’s Community 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 profession—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 continues 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 member 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.

Campaign Leadership Team
Within its first 18 months, the Purpose, People,
Possibilities campaign raised $18 million,
exceeding its initial goal of $15 million. In
October 2012, a new campaign target of
$25 million was announced and a dedicated
Campaign Leadership Team was engaged.
These prominent individuals, because of their
professionalism and standing in the community, provided the overall guidance, momentum and influence needed to effectively
achieve the goals of the campaign.
“Less quantifiable, but no less
important, is the impact our
volunteer leadership teams have
had on the success of our campaign
through their extraordinary
contributions of time, advocacy,
and generous support.”

Where Innovation Meets Transformation
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 dollars 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 promising practices, the center will enable researchbased projects that seek to advance student
knowledge and skills using nontraditional
teaching methods, instructional technology
in the classroom, and interdivisional collaboration on projects that enhance teaching and

Dual Education
Prince George’s Community College and
the county’s public schools are engaged in
an innovative program that allows motivated 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 reality 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—putting young students on the path to earn
degrees and valuable credentials that lead to
rewarding, in-demand jobs.
“Program funding opportunities
for the campaign had to meet
three critical criteria. They had
to be innovative, catalytic, and
transformative.”
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, universities and businesses committed to advancing cybersecurity education to strengthen
the national cybersecurity workforce. The
Center focuses on all levels—from elementary 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.

Partnerships with companies like
Lockheed Martin and organizations
like the Maryland Business Roundtable
for Education are critical to ensuring
that curriculum for PGCC’s Information Technology Early College (ITEC)
initiative, funded by two grants from the

totaling $1.2M, is relevant to the hiring needs
for current and future in-demand jobs.

Businesses Partner with the College
to Support the Growth of the County
The 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 advancements that can be incorporated into
existing course curriculum with the goal of preparing 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.”

Creating the Labor Force of the Future:
Workforce Development Programs
Forty-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
www.pgcc.edu/go/foundation
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, information technology and cybersecurity. These
projects fostered partnerships with business and industry to increase the earning
potential of low-wage, low-skill workers and
expand competency-based accelerated training pathways to in-demand jobs. Students
benefit from more defined career pathways
and stackable credential options that ultimately 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 students 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.

SCHOLARSHIPS & SERVICES
Maximizing Access for a Broad Range
of Students with Diverse Needs
College 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.

Prince George’s Community College serves a
diverse population of more than 40,000 students who represent 103 countries throughout 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 conditions 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 Needs
Through 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 comprehensive 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 culturallysensitive prevention and response protocols to
meet the needs of victims from underserved
populations such as LGBT students, foreignborn, disabled, and veterans.

TECHNOLOGY, EQUIPMENT & FURNISHINGS
Enhancing Technology and Infrastructure
Essential to maintaining academic excellence is an environment that supports innovative teaching and learning. With funding
designated for technology, equipment and
furnishings, Prince George’s Community
College will create spaces that foster collaboration 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 completion. Through various web-enabled modules,
Funding has allowed the college to create and outfit virtual and
simulated learning laboratory spaces for health sciences and
information technology programs, with the goal of expanding to
other programs in the near future, and foster improved retention
and completion rates by enhancing business operations.
students have immediate online access to
program specific advising, course selection,
registration, targeted support services, comprehensive coaching, and progress toward
educational goals.
Overall, the integration of these modules facilitates optimal communication and
response time among students, advisors and
faculty. Students can now make appointments
for advising and other student services electronically through the internet, thus making
it more convenient for students to get the services 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 faculty, IPAS has resulted in an improved user
interface to the college’s retention alert process
to facilitate earlier identification of at-risk students and more timely referrals to resources
for coaching, follow-up, and resolution.

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

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.
