Brice Harris, former chancellor to Los Rios Community College District was named as the new chancellor of California Community Colleges by the Board of Governors on Sept. 27, 2012.
“[Harris] is an exceptional educational leader and all of us in the community college system are fortunate to have him as our state chancellor,” said Jon Sharpe, deputy chancellor at LRCCD.
Sharpe is charged with the role of chancellor at LRCCD until the college finds a permanent replacement, which is expected to happen early next year. When Harris took his place as chancellor of the Los Rios Community College District 16 years ago, enrollment was down, fees were rapidly increasing, and the number and variety of classes offered was diminishing.
In the early and mid ‘90s, college enrollment declined. Students enrolled diminished from over 1.5 million students to around 1.3 million almost a 10 percent decrease across the state. Fee hikes and class cuts were cited as the cause in the 1993 Fee Impact Report analysis. Several years after the fee impact report was published, Harris came in as chancellor at Los Rios from Fresno Community College where he served as president. In his time as chancellor at Los Rios, Harris worked to modernize area campuses, and he expanded the district by establishing the Folsom Lake campus; this created educational opportunities to thousands of students who were not previously in a position to commute to one of the other campuses in the district.

He also developed the Sacramento City College Davis Center, where transfer students are able to get a feel for university lifestyle and more effectively integrate into the four-year institution.
Among other things, Harris will be responsible for strengthening key relationships with political and educational leaders, identifying new revenue opportunities, advocating for strengthened state support, continuing the drive for student success, and serving as a voice for community colleges nationally. Harris has been an instrumental leader in representing community colleges and education in the legislature as well as throughout the community. He has served on many committees, boards, and commissions on both the state and national levels, and he is currently serving on the board of the American Council on Education in Washington D.C. In 2010, Harris was named Sacramentan of the Year by the Sacramento Metro Chamber, and he was recently named by the United Cerebral Palsy of Sacramento as the “Humanitarian of the Year.” Now he will add the role of chief executive officer to the 112 schools in the 72 districts across California; this is the largest system of higher education in the United States.
“Harris is notorious for his honest plan for the district and we are very proud that he is now taking that to the state level,” said professor Paul Frank in the City College Department of Political Sciences. “His success is really a significant honor because it means that we have been successful as a school.”
According to a student financial aid report from August 2012, Harris has been chancellor for a decade and a half of a district that encompasses 2,400 square miles of the central California area — an area that serves 85,000 students. As of fall 2012, 2.6 million students were enrolled in California Community Colleges — almost double the level from 20 years ago. Harris has exerted tremendous effort to ensure that these 2.5 million students will be in the right place to be guided towards success.
