Ventura College is his First Love

Dr. John Woolley attended Pasadena City College in 1956 and it was that community college experience which launched him on his successful career. Dr. Woolley also attended Cal State University, Los Angeles for his Bachelor's degree and then went on to earn two Master's degrees at the University of Arizona and Immaculate Heart College. He completed his Doctorate in higher education administration at Brigham Young University.

Dr. Woolley often says that the California community college system is the greatest educational organization in the world serving the widest range of students. "My education and professional experience are based on the opportunity I had to be a community college student. That is what pointed me in the right direction and made my education affordable." Dr. Woolley served as the Vice-President of Student Services at Ventura College, Vice-President of Administrative Services at Oxnard College, and Dean of Admissions and Records at Ventura College.

Since Ventura College is Dr. Woolley's "first love," he has made arrangements to leave a substantial bequest in his will. This perpetual gift insures his legacy on campus.
