College Keys for 2006-2008
As Rogue Community College fulfills its mission to "nurture hope, fill educational gaps, and empower people to change their lives," it focuses on four keys for success. Through their implementation, RCC will remain a powerful force for the quality of life in southern Oregon.

2.2 Build partnerships in local communities.

3.2 Strengthen partnerships with agencies and institutions.
3.3 Improve student access to funding resources.

Fourth Key: Manage Resources and Expenses
