 Valley Residents Encouraged to Enroll in Southeast Campus Classes

Dear Visitacion Valley Neighbors:

As the Dean at the Southeast Campus of City College of San Francisco, I want to extend an invitation to you to enroll in our classes. For those of you who are not familiar with the Southeast Campus, we are located at 1800 Oakdale near Phelps. The Southeast Campus is one of the nine campuses within the City College of San Francisco system.

The students who attend Southeast represent the entire range of the diversity spectrum. In fact, 70 percent of credit students and 76 percent on non-credit students are members of ethnic minorities. Of the credit students 32 percent are Asian and Pacific Islanders, 14 percent are Latino, 8 percent are African American, 8 percent are Filipino and 1 percent are Native American. In non-credit programs, 40 percent are Asian and Pacific Islander, 21 percent are Latino, 7 percent are African American, 3 percent are Filipino, and less than 1 percent are Native American.

Southeast offers a number of courses which will help students get a job or develop needed skills. We offer courses in child development, business (including all levels of word processing, business correspondence, and computer instruction), home health aide, adult basic education (including pre-GED, math skills development,  oral/written communication assistance, and vocabulary/spelling enhancement), consumer arts (including fashion sewing and alteration, millinery, lingerie design and construction, and draping design and pattern development).

Classes are available in all levels of ESL at our 1800 Oakdale, 66 Raymond, and 2565 San Bruno locations. Opportunities are available at our 1800 Oakdale site to learn computer repair. We also offer a two-semester credit certificate program in Office Information Processing/Secretarial which helps students to gain the skills they need to get a job after they complete their training.
Childcare is available at Southeast. The Southeast Head Start program is enrolling students; the first priority is for working parents and parents in school. Contact Nellie at Head Start at (415) 821-6005 for details.

A number of buses get you to Southeast--the 15 Third, the 23 Monterey, the 24 Divisadero, the 44 O'Shaunessy and the 54 Williams.
Join us at Southeast! You can't miss our building at 1800 Oakdale. Come inside, pick up your schedule at the front desk, and enroll in Room 200 with Cynthia Hamilton or another member of our Admissions and Enrollment staff, or you can call (415) 550-4344 for further information. We look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Sincerely,
Veronica Hunnicutt
Dean, Southeast Campus
