'I, and literally thousands of students whose lives you have enhanced by your leadership and vision thank you Chancellor Lee Lambert.'
During the spring of 2014, I was very concerned as the college counselor at Catalina High School about the status of Pima Community College, where the majority of my college-bound students were headed. The previous few years of turmoil , chiefly due to leadership issues, had led to a number of my seniors deferring or abandoning college altogether.

Although enrollment has struggled, as has enrollment at community colleges across the nation, both pre and post-pandemic, PCC is stronger now thanks to Lee’s leadership and a dedicated faculty, staff, and administration. Accolades from Harvard, The Aspen Institute, The Bellwether Foundation, and more cite PCC as among the best community colleges in the nation.
