Courtyard of Honor
In the spirit of tremendous gratitude and appreciation, the Golden West College Foundation unveiled the Courtyard of Honor during its 30th Anniversary celebration held on November 3, 1995.
The newly landscaped President’s Courtyard of Honor consists of a donor-recognition wall, free-standing Pillars of Support, and the Alumni Pillars of Achievement.
In the magnificent California-like garden, quad area is a marker dedicated as a tribute to Judith Valles, a visionary president who headed Golden West College from 1988 to 1993.
Buried below the marker is a time capsule celebrating GWC’s silver anniversary. The capsule holds a copy of the original typewritten draft of Golden West’s inaugural course schedule, photographs, and other memorabilia from the college’s first 25 years. Student government members also wrote letters to their successors, who will open the capsule in 2016 when Golden West College celebrates its 50th anniversary.
