The College of Marin is a public community college in Marin County, California, with two campuses, one in Kentfield, and the second in Novato. It is the only institution operated by the Marin Community College District.

College of Marin has been in operation since 1926. Each semester, about 10,000 students are enrolled in over 1,100 credit classes. Approximately 100 international students participate in College of Marin's International Student Program.

Originally known as Marin Junior College when established in 1926, the college was renamed College of Marin in 1947. In 1985 College of Marin merged with Indian Valley College. This merger provided Marin residents with two campuses, the original campus located in Kentfield and the Indian Valley Campus in Novato. The two campuses serve a county population of approximately 250,000 residents.

Governance

The College of Marin is governed as part of the Marin Community College District (MCCD), the community college district serving Marin County, California. MCCD is one of six California community college districts that is considered "basic aid", or "self-supporting", and therefore receives most of its operating revenue from local property taxes rather than State apportionment (since local property tax revenues exceed apportionment figures).

The MCCD is governed by seven members of a board of trustees elected by-area to four-year terms. Elections are held every two years, three members chosen the year after a presidential election and four chosen the year before. The students also elect one non-voting student trustee, who serves a one-year term and can participate in discussions and make and second motions so long as they are not related to real estate negotiations, personnel or collective bargaining.

Student body association

In 1927 the students of College of Marin organized an unincorporated association named "The Associated Students of Marin Junior College". On October 8, 1932, they filed in the office of the California Secretary of State a document titled "Articles of Incorporation of The Associated Students of Marin Junior College". The filing of that document transformed The Associated Students of Marin Junior College into a corporation. On March 1, 1991, the students filed a "Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation". The filing of that amendment changed the corporation's name to "Associated Students College of Marin".[2]

California law provides that, "The governing board of each community college district shall establish, maintain, operate, and govern one or more community colleges".[3] The Board of Trustees of Marin Community College District has authorized the students of the district to organize a "student body association".[4] The district's governing board has recognized that Associated Students College of Marin is a student body association. The governing board has also recognized Associated Students College of Marin "as the official voice for the students in District decision-making processes".[5]
