[Wsssc] Message from Jack Huls

[Joe Holliday]

WSSSC: below is a note from our friend and colleague Jack Huls...


Dear Colleagues/Friends,
>
> I am writing this message to let you know that my tenure as Vice
> President for Student Services a Peninsula College has ended. Although
> I am sad to leave the best institution I have ever served at, I look
> back over the last 19 years with such fond memories of helping
> students achieve success. I worked with a leadership team and staff in
> Student Services that lived our Guiding Principles on an unwaveringly
> consistent basis. I am most proud of that and of them. Many have asked
> me over the years what makes PC such a great and unique place, and I
> always pointed to our Guiding Principles. As I was discussing with a
> member from my leadership team recently that, at the end of the day,
> it is all about relationships.
>
> And that brings me to you, WSSSC leaders on your respective campuses
> and within our system. Thank you for your support, encouragement,
> collaborative teamwork, and all the kicks-and-giggles we have shared
> over the years. Although we have so many new members that I have not
> had the chance to get to know well, each of you are beginning or
> continuing a tradition that makes our system shine across the nation.
>
> My immediate plans are to continue helping my sisters care for my
> elderly father in Whatcom County. I hope to remain in the SBCTC system
> in some capacity. I am far from ready to ride off into the sunset. I
> remain passionate about our equity, inclusion, and belonging work
> built on the Guided Pathways framework. I genuinely believe that the
> redesign work we have embarked upon with Guided Pathways is going to
> be the difference-maker in closing equity gaps for our BIPOC and other
> marginalized student populations. Keep up the good work and maybe I
> will see you on a campus near you soon!
