In June, the West Hills Community College District (WHCCD) announced that Fresno City President Robert Pimentel would become the new chancellor on Aug. 1.
The State Center Community College District has ensured continuity in its leadership by announcing that three leaders will take on interim assignments to continue advancing the work of its campuses.
Pimentel will depart State Center at the end of July to assume the role of chancellor at West Hills Community College District. Kim Armstrong will serve as the acting president of Fresno City College. Armstrong, currently serving as the president of Clovis Community College, will bring her wealth of experience and leadership qualities to continue the work at Fresno City College, according to a news release.
The Fresno City College Vice President of Administrative Services, Dr. Omar Gutierrez, is also departing the college, appointed as the chief business officer at Southwestern College in Chula Vista.
Glynna Billings will assume the interim (provisional) vice president of administrative services role at Fresno City College until the position is advertised and filled. Billings serves as district accounting manager, supervising State Center’s accounts payable, payroll, and other vital financial operations.
With Armstrong’s transition to Fresno City College, Monica Chahal, vice president of instruction at Clovis Community College, will become interim college president.
The District will open the interim vice president of instruction position at Clovis Community College, for which internal candidates across the District may apply.
“I have full confidence in our leadership team and the entire District as we navigate these transitions and continue our mission of providing quality education and support to our students. These strategic appointments reflect the District’s deep commitment to maintaining positive momentum and our focus on advancing equitable student access and achievement across the district. We are fortunate to have such talented and versatile individuals in our District,” said State Center Chancellor Dr. Carole Goldsmith.
