The board of regents is supposed to consider the proposal at its next meeting later this month. New at 6 00 an east Bay Community<\/a> College District<\/a> is taking bold steps to recruit minority students and graduate. Ann notarangelo reports the focus may surprise you. Reporter the apple Valley College<\/a> is a much more colorful campus than a decade ago. Its demographics follow the overall trend in Contra Costa County<\/a> as minority populations grow. That change is not mirrored everywhere. There is a little diversity in the faculty but more in the students. Reporter johnson credits her success at the school to teachers and counselors she identifies with. When you see a leader that shares your history or culture then it gives you hope. Do we need to hire, um, folks of various, um, nationalities, ethnicities and races . Yes. Reporter the president and the other Community College<\/a> president s in contra costa are part of a drive to recruit and employ more diverse faculty and staff. State law prohibits affirmative action hiring. Its a difficult discussion after prop 209. But race matters. Me being a black student and have been a black teacher is easier to connect. Reporter Research Shows<\/a> students connect better with teachers and mentors who look like them and that connection keeps them on track to graduation. Africanamerican and latino males are falling behind. Its still about hiring fabulous people. Its just also being open to the possibility that fabulous people will not look like us. Reporter this english teacher might seem like an unlikely advocate but her students point out inspiring minority students isnt solely based on race. Its not necessarily about the teacher being white or black or anything like that. They have to understand that you have a certain student population on campus and every student is different. Faculty relates to somebody who has to struggle. I have to struggle and i still am. Reporter the Demographic Research<\/a> validates the struggles still exist for minorities. But the hope is, one day, all those numbers that break down success based on race will be irrelevant. In pleasant hill, ann notarangelo, kpix 5.
