On November 13, the Campaign for College Opportunity announced that it has selected Crafton Hills College as one of the 20 California Community Colleges receiving its 2024 Excellence in Placement Award, recognizing institutions implementing AB 705 for equitable course placement. This law ensures students have direct access to transfer-level courses in math and English, advancing their timely degree completion and transfer to a four-year university. It addresses long-standing barriers in transfer pathways, where required remedial courses had delayed student progress, disproportionately affecting Black and Latinx students.
