Dear SRJC Community, 

Santa Rosa Junior College is aware of the recent U.S. Department of Education announcement regarding Title IX investigations at several institutions, including SRJC. We want to assure our community that we are cooperating with the process and are working with legal counsel to ensure accuracy, transparency, and compliance.

Providing a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for all students and employees remains one of our highest priorities and reflects the core values of SRJC—integrity, equity, accountability, and a commitment to student success. While we cannot discuss individual circumstances or details during this process, we can affirm that the District follows established procedures.

Our Public Information Officer, Sarah Pew, is responding to media inquiries on behalf of the college. If you are contacted by media for a District response, please refer them directly to spew@santarosa.edu.

In Community,  

Dr. Angélica Garcia, Ed.D.
Superintendent/President
