Trustee Carolyn Inmon

Irvine Valley College, along with Trustee Inmon, hosted Irvine Vice Mayor James Mai and Chief of Staff Steven Alves for a campus tour of IVC.

Trustee Inmon enjoyed an amazing legislative day hosted by the Orange County Business Council. Leaders of OC gathered for a one-day impactful conference. Thank you for the opportunity to hear from our policy makers from across the region on all things business, housing, environment, education and more. We can't wait until next year.

Admin from IVC, along with Trustee Inmon met with Rep. Dave Min at Irvine Valley College during a visit in his home district. With his help, we can truly address housing and food insecurity for our students. We are so thankful to partner with him in this important work.

Trustee Inmon was grateful for the opportunity to meet with California State Senator Steven Choi to talk about SOCCCD, the future of Orange County's workforce, and how to support students attend college with less debt and more in-demand jobs to help grow the local economy.

All of our Board of Trustees were thrilled to celebrate the grand opening and ribbon cutting of Saddleback@ATEP – a cutting-edge campus designed to connect education with innovation. From state-of-the-art automotive technology labs preparing the next generation of skilled technicians, to modern culinary facilities where students will master their craft, this campus is a hub for high-demand, high-growth careers. Together, we’re building pathways that drive opportunity and flavor the future at the ATEP campus in Tustin. Many thanks to all who attend to celebrate this momentous occasion.

Saddleback College and Irvine Valley College are buzzing with new and returning students, inspiring faculty, and dedicated classified professionals—all ready to make this semester one to remember as Trustee Inmon helps mark the official kick-off to the Fall semester across the South Orange County Community College District. Here’s to new goals, new connections, and new opportunities to learn and grow. Welcome back, Bobcats and Lasers—let’s make Fall 2025 our best semester yet!

A great day to learn all about Orange County facts, figures, and initiatives at the annual State of the County.

President of the Board Carolyn Inmon, Vice President Ryan Dack and Chancellor Julianna Asperin Barnes were proud to join Girls Inc. of Orange County for their annual IgniteHER conference hosted by Assembly Member Cottie Petrie-Norris. The room was packed, the energy was high, and we left inspired to support and encourage the many girls in attendance who will no doubt be the future leaders of Orange County.
