Sandra Labuschagne
Diagnosed with cancer twice before finishing my AA, I showed up to class with no hair and a singular goal—and more than a decade later, that refusal to quit at Ventura College led me to a BA, an MA, teaching credentials, and 12 years of teaching high school English and Art.
Alysha Cordova
From public school teaching to corporate sales to marketing and entrepreneurship, none of my milestones would have been possible without the confidence, curiosity, and foundation that Ventura College gave me.
Holly Guzman
From a gap year abroad to graduating Magna Cum Laude at UC Davis, and now enrolling in USC’s Clinical Psychology graduate program, Holly Guzman credits Ventura Community College for showing up at every pivotal turn in her journey
