Message from the Chancellor - Chief Diversity Officer
It is with great honor and my distinct privilege to reaffirm the appointment of Dr. Michele Carter as Central Texas College’s first Chief Diversity Officer. On June 2, 2020 it became apparent to me that Central Texas College and the world had changed and I sent a message to all students, faculty and staff expressing the senseless killing of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and so many others.
