Thank you for visiting my campaign web site.

I am seeking re-election to represent La Caņada Flintridge, Pasadena and Altadena on the governing board of the Pasadena Area Community College District.

PCC is at a crossroads. Community colleges throughout California are facing severe cuts in funding. We have been forced to make deep cuts that have jeopardized student access at a time when it is needed more than ever. Despite these and other challenges, we must preserve the outstanding academic instruction and career training necessary to help students transfer to four-year universities or find good jobs in our rapidly changing economy.

I will continue my efforts to secure funding for critical programs and insist on prudent financial management and accountability of hard-earned taxpayer dollars.

In this election, I will work diligently to focus attention on the future of Pasadena City College. I will respectfully seek the support of voters in La Caņada Flintridge, Pasadena and Altadena with my message emphasizing quality instruction, service to the community, and sound fiscal management.

To find out more about my campaign to bring experienced and dedicated leadership to one of our community's great institutions, please call me at 213-840-3870, write glbaum@msn.com, or visit Geoffrey Baum for PCC Board of Trustees on Facebook.
