Walthers, Ph.D. 2 | SPEC TRUM Thank You Ardis Neilsen In December 2015, our long-time visionary leader, friend, educator, and much beloved dean Ardis Neilsen will transition into what some call, retirement. But for Ardis, who for 29 years has been a tireless champion and advocate for accessible education throughout the community, ‘retirement’ is a word more than an action. In fact, her motto as dean of Community Education has always been to “better serve the needs of our community.” And we can be assured that she will continue to do exactly that. Ardis began her career at Allan Hancock College in 1977 as a public communication specialist for the Community Education department. After moving out of the Santa Maria area for a time, she returned in 1987, and rejoined the department that she loves to steadily build a successful, community needs-oriented program. She went from an entry-level position to Community Education coordinator to director of Economic Development, then to associate dean, and finally to her current position as dean. For the last six years, she has served simultaneously as dean of Community Education and of credit departments including the Children’s Center. If you were to look behind the scenes of the noncredit program, you would see Ardis steadfastly and meticulously working, always keeping the Community Education mission at the heart of what she does—designing a great program that helps people obtain jobs, transition into credit classes, or gain new skills for personal growth. Through her persistence and diligence, she developed and managed multiple federal and state grants with funding from NASA, National Science Foundation, Department of Labor, and Housing and Urban Development totaling over $1.4 million, to bring positive change to students. She has always been intimately involved and forward thinking in developing new classes and programs for the community over the years, and was instrumental in helping to bring the Atkinson Lifelong Learning Center to the community and the new Community Education building that was completed in 2007 to create a “home” for noncredit students on the main AHC campus. Many popular programs and events over the last three decades also bear her footprint, including College for Kids, and later the Youth Dance program. She also created Arts & Lectures events for all ages such as the Faculty Lecture Series, Writer’s Night, Film Series and Festivals, and Magical Moments. She worked with many community partners to present forums and conferences on social issues like gang prevention, suicide awareness, and the local Japanese-American World War II internment oral history project. Her accomplishments are beyond measure, and her commitment to enriching the lives of community residents resonates with all of us who have been beneficiaries of her efforts. For those of us who have had the pleasure to work closely with Ardis, her departure is bittersweet. We, in Community Education, treasure her for her fighting spirit as she has been a passionate advocate for students and has worked hard to ensure that Community Education created opportunities for those who wish to improve and enrich their lives in a lifelong learning environment. When you see Ardis in the community, thank her. If you are enjoying one of many noncredit classes, she likely had something to do with it. Ardis, you will always be a part of Allan Hancock College. We wish you the best in your new pursuits and grand adventures.

She has been an educator for 13 years, part as ESL (credit and noncredit) instructor for AHC and also for the Lompoc Unified School District’s Adult Education program, where she was the full-time lead ESL instructor for seven years. While attending CSU Fresno, she focused on curriculum development and discourse analysis. Part of her job here will be working with ESL credit faculty in supporting student transfer success. Andria has a passion for languages, and as a linguist, she speaks Spanish and has studied the cultures and languages of Japan and France. She studied Japanese for a year and was impressed with the effective techniques used to teach the language, and that led her to become involved in ESL. “I have always been fascinated with languages,” she said. “I enjoy learning languages and experiencing the diverse cultures that are part of that learning process. “ Andria is equally thrilled to be joining the noncredit ESL team and said she looks forward to the challenge of working at Community Education and continuing to learn and grow both professionally and personally. “I have been blessed to learn from and work with great leaders and teachers over the years, and I am excited to apply what I’ve learned.” She especially loves teaching adults. “I love this population of students! They come to learn and are thirsty for knowledge,” she said. “Each student has his or her own unique set of life experiences and educational background that lends itself to the classroom dynamic.” “I want to inspire and help my students gain confidence in their ability to learn English and to see all the opportunities that they have to practice what they learn in my class and to set goals in their English language acquisition,” she said. “My desire is that they leave my class with personal improvements in reading, writing, listening, and speaking, and with the ability to apply what they have learned—as well as the techniques they used learning it—to their future studies.” 4 | SPEC TRUM Income Tax Preparation Certificate Learn the basics of income tax preparation, IRS software TaxWise, and receive hands-on experience preparing taxes in a 40-hour internship.

Student Success Edwin Mazariegos overcame many life challenges that led him to a life of learning and success! At age 13, when he and his family left Guatemala for California, he faced challenges of not speaking English, then dealing with his father’s death shortly after the family’s arrival. He left school to work and help support his family. Years later, he returned to school, enrolled in Allan Hancock College’s Community Education English as a Second Language and basic math skills classes, then transferred to credit. Eventually he embarked on an automotive technology educational pathway and found a passion, as well as academic success, achieving a high GPA and completing all requirements to earn his Certificate of Achievement in automotive technology. Today, Edwin is realizing his dream as mechanical repairs manager at the renowned Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort, a 10,000-acre cattle (dude) ranch in Solvang, which quietly attracts the rich and famous. He supervises a staff of four to eight and oversees maintenance and repairs for two fleets of golf carts (totaling 250) used on the property’s two championship golf courses, multiple ranch vehicles, and other motorized equipment. He credits Allan Hancock College with paving the way for his current job success. But it was his strong determination that kept him enrolled in classes, and he still continues to further expand his education and has instilled those values in his children.

General Information What is the difference between noncredit and community service (fee-based) classes? Community Education offers two types of classes: noncredit and Community Service (fee-based). Most noncredit classes are free of charge because districts are not permitted to charge fees for noncredit classes eligible for state apportionment (Education Code 84757). However, some noncredit classes have optional materials fees consistent with Title 5 regulations. Community Service (fee-based) classes do not receive public funding. These classes charge an enrollment fee to remain self-supporting, as required by state law. Community Education student identification card To obtain a non-photo ID card free of charge or a photo ID card for $2, visit Community Education (bldg. S). If the card is lost, a $2 replacement fee is charged for photo ID cards.

However, we have explored numerous methods of distribution and this one (using the US Postal Service bulk mail process) is still the most efficient for the money. It costs approximately .07 cents to mail you this schedule (because it is addressed to residential customer) versus $1.10 or more if you phoned to request a Spectrum be sent to you. In addition, printing costs per Spectrum are relatively low at about $0.07 each. Because Allan Hancock College serves tens of thousands of people in our community, we feel it is important to keep you informed about our programs. As costs increase, we will continue to examine distribution methods to ensure cost effectiveness.
