College of Desert community listening sessions continue in Coachella and Palm Springs

Community members are invited to attend College of the Desert’s listening sessions this week. 

The listening sessions were introduced by Laura Hope, who has been serving as interim President and Superintendent of College of the Desert since July 1.  

Hope says the sessions are the college’s way of getting the community’s input on important issues and future hope. 

“The listening sessions were really a way for us to kind of help the community Dream Along with us. What would you like the college to represent? What kinds of programming do you think would be most helpful? As the valley starts to change? What kinds of things would you like to see us do to better support students?,” said Hope.
