VCC Welcomes New Board of Directors Chair and Vice-Chair

New chair

Vancouver Community College (VCC) is pleased to announce the election of Mahin Rashid as the new Chair of the VCC Board of Directors. This transition marks an exciting new chapter for the college as Mahin takes on this important leadership role, following her tenure as Vice-Chair. Part of a planned succession process, the Board’s election of Mahin ensures strong and consistent leadership for VCC. Her first formal act as Chair was presiding over the VCC Convocation ceremonies last week, where she celebrated the achievements of VCC’s newest graduates.

In Mahin’s place as Vice-Chair, the Board has elected Jeffrey Yu. Jeffrey brings a wealth of expertise and commitment to the position, further strengthening VCC’s governance and dedication to its community.

The college extends its heartfelt gratitude to Joey Hartman for her tremendous tenure as Board Chair. Since her election to Chair in 2018, Joey’s unwavering dedication, thoughtful leadership, and passion for VCC have been instrumental in guiding the college through years of success and growth. Joey will remain a valued member of the Board until the end of her term in July, ensuring a seamless transition.

We look forward to the continued leadership of Mahin and Jeffrey as we embark on this exciting new phase of governance and innovation at VCC.
