    It sounds like you have done some great work building collaborations between UCs, CSUs, and community colleges in SoCal. The Cal-Bridge program (http://stemforall2018.videohall.com/p/1277) has developed similar partnerships statewide focusing on helping underrepresented students achieve PhDs in physics and astronomy. It sounds like there is a lot of potential for our two programs to support each other! Please take a look at our video and let us know if talking about collaboration going forward makes sense to you.

    In the video and description it looks like you are targeting both faculty and graduate students who may become faculty. Is that correct? 

    Can you expand upon what kinds of supports you have been developing at various levels?

    Interesting example of collective impact.  You mentioned in your video that you had identified some other models in your preliminary planning.  What are those models and what did you learn?  I'm particularly interested in any models of community colleges and 4 year colleges working together towards equity goals.

    I like the idea of collaborating with many local colleges. It seems you are in the beginning stages of your project. Has there been success in reaching grad students that may be interested in the program?

    Hi Jessica and team‚

    thanks for sharing this. What a terrific idea. I'm not a faculty member myself, but I can imagine that many interested in teaching in higher ed are less aware of the potential for teaching in community colleges because they seem to be less talked about (at least in my experience). I wonder if you'd ever consider extending this partnership to include high school advisors, such that those young people have more exposure to the possibility for academic work in community colleges.

    Thanks again for sharing this.
