Pasco-Hernando State College Annual Report 2017

Dear Friends, Pasco-Hernando State College President Timothy L. Beard, Ph.D. Pasco-Hernando State College is experiencing a new energy—not just on campus as students prepare for finals and enjoy the last days before winter commencement, but within the community our College serves. PHSC is gaining more attention than ever, through marketing, community outreach, and extensive media coverage. We are working even harder to ensure our amazing institution gets the recognition it deserves so we can develop stronger enrollments and achieve Gold status. During the 2018-19 academic year, the College is celebrating another successful year of new programs and innovative ideas which will not only change the face of Pasco and Hernando counties, but the state of Florida. With newly developed programs such as unmanned vehicles systems operation in aviation, pharmacy technician and surgical technology training, PHSC is on the cutting edge of driving the workforce of the future. While increasing our choices for students, we celebrate them, through College events like Peace Week, Unity Day, and the One Nation celebration. PHSC is gearing up for even more opportunities to increase enrollment as the growth of our two counties continues. In Pasco County alone, the State Road 54 corridor in Trinity/Odessa is booming with multiple new communities bringing thousands of new families to our area. Families with future PHSC students. Our goal is to continue working closely with each county school district to identify the needs of our future students and with the business community to create stronger partnerships. The College and the Foundation have worked tirelessly to better connect the community to the goals and the very heart of PHSC. The PHSC Foundation actively supports the mission of Pasco- Hernando State College by annually investing $1.2 million in supporting programs, library resources, faculty and staff development and academic equipment. The Foundation proudly awarded, for the first time, more than $1 million in scholarship funding during the 2017-18 academic year toward nearly 1,000 students. The future is even brighter with a new Instructional Performing Arts Center being designed to offer our more artistically focused students the chance to shine—be it through dance, theater, painting or sculpture. We are proud to serve more than 48,000 graduates and grateful to our many donors and friends of the College. PHSC is striving to make 2019 even more exciting and forward-thinking than ever before and with our community support, we will accomplish our goals. We look forward to the future and hope you enjoy this 2019 calendar representing the College and the Foundation. The photos represent each of our five beautiful campuses, the amazing students, and the faculty and staff who support our students through education and creating special events which enhance the College experience. From your friends at PHSC, have a happy and successful new year.
