Annual Report
2013
Message from the
President
Small classes. Affordable tuition. Close to home. And excellent instructors.
That’s why Raven Conyers chose Everett Community College. And those are the top reasons more
than 19,000 students joined her last year.
Raven, who was selected by her fellow students to speak at graduation, lived at home and worked
part-time while attending EvCC. She transferred to Washington State University to major in
biochemistry and pre-pharmacy with plans to become a pharmacist.
Handing out diplomas and certificates to graduates like Raven is the best part of my job. I look
forward to shaking more hands at graduation next year. EvCC is strengthening efforts to assist
students in completing their studies and graduating.With Achieving the Dream grant funding,
EvCC is taking a close look at data that tracks student success and identifies roadblocks.We’ve
already begun investing in best practices, such as more college orientation and increased tutoring.
EvCC is also building new classrooms and labs for students. In the past seven years, EvCC
completed almost $150 million in construction, including the new 72,000 square-foot health
sciences building, Liberty Hall, which opened in April 2013.
We are thankful the Legislature invested capital dollars for Liberty Hall and chose to increase
support for higher education in the 2013-14 budget while not raising tuition.
I’m also grateful for community involvement and support for EvCC. Hundreds of community
members donated to the EvCC Foundation and participated in EvCC’s strategic planning
discussions, helping shape the college’s vision for the future.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Dr. David N. Beyer

Growth
In the past seven years, EvCC has completed almost $150 million in construction, including Liberty
Hall, the college’s new nursing and health sciences building.
The 72,000 square foot Liberty Hall opened in April 2013.The three-story, $37.5 million facility is
located at 930 N. Broadway next to the college’s Fitness Center.
In addition to EvCC classrooms and labs, the building is the new home of the Providence Everett
Healthcare Clinic, previously located across the street.
Liberty Hall is home to the EvCC’s nursing, medical assisting and phlebotomy programs and other
health sciences training, plus EvCC’s criminal justice program.
The building triples the amount of laboratory space for health sciences programs and includes new
simulation technology to train healthcare professionals.The new space gives EvCC room for more
students in the nursing, medical assisting, phlebotomy and nursing assistant certified programs.
In January 2013, the college also opened its renovated Corporate & Continuing Education Center.The
entire interior of the two-story structure was renovated to provide improved use of the space, including
an expansion to 12 classrooms with state-of-the-art equipment, plus four technology classrooms, a
conference room, student lounge, and a large meeting area for up to 100 people.
The Center provides professional development and career training for individuals and customized
training for employers.
Next up for EvCC is the new Advanced Manufacturing Training & Education Center to train students for
high-demand jobs in manufacturing and aerospace. It will be located at 1001 N. Broadway in College
Plaza after a $3.5 million remodel of a college-owned warehouse.
Construction is scheduled to start by the end of 2013, with the building set to open the following year.
Student Success
Everett Community College is using a new $1.7 million Title lll grant
from the U.S. Department of Education to help more students stay in
school and graduate.
The five-year grant is enhancing advising, helping every student
create an effective educational plan, increasing scholarships for low-
income students, funding faculty coaching and technology training,
providing industry-specific language skills training, strengthening
retention efforts and supporting expansion of EvCC’s web-based
advising data portal.
“The start-to-finish advising process we implemented this year is
making a big difference for students in terms of declaring a major and
developing an educational plan early,” said Dr. Sandra Fowler-Hill,
EvCC Executive Vice President of Instruction and Student Services.
The college is closely tracking the impact of the changes. Already,
mandatory advising is making an impact – students who complete it
have a 5 percent higher retention rate.
Another number EvCC is celebrating is 1,000.That’s the number of
students who have graduated through the award-winning EAGER
program as of June 2013.
The EAGER program – Entry, Assessment, GED, Employment and
Retention – was created in 2004 to move parents from welfare into
jobs that support their families.
The overall number of EvCC grads also rose. In 2012-13, the number
of students earning a degree or certificate was up 22 percent – from
more than 1,800 to more than 2,200, compared with the previous
year.
innovation
From the 3D printer used by engineering students to the
celebration of the college’s first honors graduates, innovation is
valued at EvCC.
The college invests in innovation – funding an Innovations
Academy for faculty and a project that explores the instructional
use of mobile devices.
EvCC also works closely with business and industry experts,
partnering with leaders who advise programs about curriculum to
ensure students get the best education.
In the past year, the college expanded key programs to respond
to the needs of industry, its students, and other partners. EvCC
added an evening engineering program and more engineering
classes, partnering with the Washington State University
mechanical engineering program, which offers classes at EvCC’s
Everett campus.
The college also worked with University of Washington Bothell
and Saint Martin’s University to offer more bachelor of science in
nursing classes on EvCC’s Everett campus – 70 seats – giving
the college 110 total, enough for all of the college’s registered
nursing graduates.The classes make EvCC’s campus one of the
largest sources of nurses with bachelor’s degrees in the state.
The college has also grown its East County Campus in Monroe
– doubling enrollment in the past year. Students can earn an
associate’s degree without leaving East County, expanding
opportunities for students to get a higher education close to
home.

Partnerships
Everett Community College became one of the first colleges in Washington in 2012 to offer an
aerospace composite technician certificate.
The 31-credit certificate was designed in cooperation with industry subject-matter experts to meet
the needs of the growing aerospace composite field. It provides entry-level knowledge and skills
for employment in the composite industry.
The program wouldn’t have been possible without a partnership with the Snohomish School
District. All EvCC composites classes are held at Snohomish High School’s state-of-the-art lab.
“I’m on my way to a job with good pay and benefits and, most importantly, work I enjoy,” said
EvCC composites student Taylor Hunter, who drove tow trucks for eight years before deciding to
go to college.
The partnership reflects the close relationship EvCC has with Snohomish County school districts.
The college has the same kind of connections with business and industry, working closely with
employers to ensure graduates are prepared for the workforce.
The college partners directly with employers for training through EvCC’s Corporate & Continuing
Education Center. In 2012, the college was approached by leaders from The Boeing Company to
design and deliver an innovative degree program for Boeing individual contributors, supervisors,
and managers seeking to complete a 4-year degree.
The Bachelor of Arts in Management – Organizational Excellence degree, also known as BAM, is
a unique partnership between EvCC and City University of Seattle.
Under the partnership, EvCC designs and delivers the first year of the program, including two
professional certificate programs aligned to industry standards. Students then transfer to City
University of Seattle for additional coursework but also have the option to pursue additional
certificates through EvCC.
In the first year of the program, EvCC trained 16 groups totaling 224 employees. Many of the
classes were held on-site at Boeing-Everett and Boeing-Renton.

Alumni
For the Zuvela family, the impact of EvCC can be traced
back three generations.
Leonard Zuvela attended the college in the late 1940s
through the G.I. Bill. He started a tradition that continues
today.There has been a Zuvela family member attending
or working at EvCC in every decade.
Since 1941, the college has educated thousands of
students in our community, with 80 percent of former
students staying in the area to live and work.
The talent developed at EvCC has long-term economic
impact. College alumni and operations contribute
The Zuvela family.
$301.8 million to Snohomish County’s economy every
year, according to an economic impact study.
Attending EvCC also leaves lasting memories.Three
dozen alumni and their families gathered in June 2013
to celebrate as six former athletes, one coach and five
teams were inducted into EvCC’s Athletic Hall of Fame.

Cultural Pluralism and Global Readiness
Students from Brazil, South Africa, Pakistan, India, and Indonesia attended EvCC through the Community Colleges for International Development program 2012-13.
Student volunteers assist with EvCC’s Students of Color
Career Conference.
Adnan Syed and Sumit Karn’s countries have a rocky
relationship, but the two EvCC students quickly became
friends.
Syed, from Pakistan, and Karn, from India, came to
EvCC through the Community Colleges for International
Development program funded through the U.S. State
Department.The two journalism students, who wrote for
the college’s newspaper and The Herald, had never met
someone from each other’s country before.
“I met a person from India, so I have a chance now to see
how an Indian person is, from very close,” Syed told The
Seattle Globalist.“And I have found he is just like me.”
The two were among the 302 international students
enrolled at EvCC from 25 different countries. Last year
was the fifth continuous year of growth in the college’s
international education program – up 400 percent since
the college decided to expand its global reach.
EvCC also welcomed 1,600 high school and middle
school students of color to the college’s Students of Color
Career Conference in March.The event is part of EvCC’s
commitment to cultural pluralism and global readiness.
Students learn global and cultural connections in the
classroom, through community events, and by learning
with students from around the globe.
Athletics
It was a moment 46 years in the making.
EvCC’s baseball team reclaimed the Northwest Athletic Association
of Community Colleges championship title in May 2013, defeating the
Pierce College Raiders 4-1.
EvCC Trojans last won the championship in 1967.
“It’s the best ride I’ve been on,” said Levi Lacey, who took over as the
Trojans’ head coach in 2002.“I won a national championship as a
player, but that doesn’t compare to this.Twelve years of support from
(athletic director) Larry Walker — the ring means a lot for the team
and the program from where we started.”
EvCC restarted its baseball program in 2000 after a 20-year hiatus.
Since then, 16 players have been drafted into the major leagues.
The team wasn’t the only one bringing home a championship.The
EvCC Trojan women’s cross country team won their third NWAACC
title in four years in November 2012, the first back-to-back-title in
school history.
In 2012-13, more than 250 athletes participated in EvCC’s nine
league sports and intramural leagues.
EvCC sophomore pitcher Gunnar Swanson gave up only four hits in
the NWAACC championship game. He was named MVP.
Faculty and Staff
EvCC student Jennifer Johnson Hernandez dreamed of transferring to the new Washington State
University engineering program offered in Everett, but didn’t think that was possible – until she met with
engineering instructor Eric Davishahl.
Davishahl encouraged her to retake a few math and engineering classes and helped boost her confidence.
“That first meeting I had with Eric got me back on track with my degree,” Johnson Hernandez wrote in her
nomination for EvCC’s “You Made a Difference” award. She graduated from EvCC with honors and was
accepted into WSU’s mechanical engineering program.
Students also selected instructors Steven Horn, Rene Kratz, Theresa Markovich, Isabelle Miller, and Laura
Wild for the honor.
The “You Made a Difference” award was one of many earned by faculty and staff in the past year. A few
others include:
•	 Longtime photography instructor Lloyd Weller received the Everett Mayor’s Art award for his support
for the local arts community.
•	 Communications instructor Lori Wisdom-Whitley was awarded Exemplary Status from the Washington
Community Colleges Humanities Association.
•	 Two faculty members – Jason Ripper and Bethany Reid – published books.
•	 Mary Kaye Bredeson, Washington State Center of Excellence for Aerospace and Advanced Materials
Manufacturing Executive Director, received The Chair Academy’s 2013 Idahlynn Karre Exemplary
Leadership award.
•	 Student Activities Advisor Lindsay Hudson received the U.S. Department of Defense’s Employer
Support of the Guard and Reserve Patriot Award for her support for student veterans and active duty
military service members. She was nominated for the honor by U.S. Navy Reserve Chief Petty Officer
Stephanie Anderson. “This is my third attempt at college,” Anderson said.“This college is where
veterans want to be because of people like Lindsay.”

Remembering Donna
Jane Squires Hart, a member of the EvCC Foundation Summit
Society, established an endowed scholarship fund in memory of her
friend and fellow nursing student, Donna Dombek.
Donna was Everett Junior College’s Woman of theYear in 1956
and had a successful career as a nurse.The Donna Dombek fund
supports nursing students who, like Donna, will follow their dreams
to become nurses.
The Summit Society
The Summit Society at Everett Community College was founded to honor friends and alumni who have established planned gifts or have
provided for EvCC in their will.
Much like the mountain peaks of our region, gifts given by members of the Summit Society will last for generations. It is fitting that those who
commit to such far-sighted support be honored in a group named after our enduring natural landscape.
Call 425-388-9948 to receive more information about becoming a member.

  • 2. Message from the President Small classes. Affordable tuition. Close to home. And excellent instructors. That’s why Raven Conyers chose Everett Community College. And those are the top reasons more than 19,000 students joined her last year. Raven, who was selected by her fellow students to speak at graduation, lived at home and worked part-time while attending EvCC. She transferred to Washington State University to major in biochemistry and pre-pharmacy with plans to become a pharmacist. Handing out diplomas and certificates to graduates like Raven is the best part of my job. I look forward to shaking more hands at graduation next year. EvCC is strengthening efforts to assist students in completing their studies and graduating.With Achieving the Dream grant funding, EvCC is taking a close look at data that tracks student success and identifies roadblocks.We’ve already begun investing in best practices, such as more college orientation and increased tutoring. EvCC is also building new classrooms and labs for students. In the past seven years, EvCC completed almost $150 million in construction, including the new 72,000 square-foot health sciences building, Liberty Hall, which opened in April 2013. We are thankful the Legislature invested capital dollars for Liberty Hall and chose to increase support for higher education in the 2013-14 budget while not raising tuition. I’m also grateful for community involvement and support for EvCC. Hundreds of community members donated to the EvCC Foundation and participated in EvCC’s strategic planning discussions, helping shape the college’s vision for the future. Thank you! Sincerely, Dr. David N. Beyer President 19,530 students (7,727 FTEs) attended EvCC in 2012-13. EvCC 2013 graduation speaker Raven Conyers and President David Beyer.

  • 9. Growth In the past seven years, EvCC has completed almost $150 million in construction, including Liberty Hall, the college’s new nursing and health sciences building. The 72,000 square foot Liberty Hall opened in April 2013.The three-story, $37.5 million facility is located at 930 N. Broadway next to the college’s Fitness Center. In addition to EvCC classrooms and labs, the building is the new home of the Providence Everett Healthcare Clinic, previously located across the street. Liberty Hall is home to the EvCC’s nursing, medical assisting and phlebotomy programs and other health sciences training, plus EvCC’s criminal justice program. The building triples the amount of laboratory space for health sciences programs and includes new simulation technology to train healthcare professionals.The new space gives EvCC room for more students in the nursing, medical assisting, phlebotomy and nursing assistant certified programs. In January 2013, the college also opened its renovated Corporate & Continuing Education Center.The entire interior of the two-story structure was renovated to provide improved use of the space, including an expansion to 12 classrooms with state-of-the-art equipment, plus four technology classrooms, a conference room, student lounge, and a large meeting area for up to 100 people. The Center provides professional development and career training for individuals and customized training for employers. Next up for EvCC is the new Advanced Manufacturing Training & Education Center to train students for high-demand jobs in manufacturing and aerospace. It will be located at 1001 N. Broadway in College Plaza after a $3.5 million remodel of a college-owned warehouse. Construction is scheduled to start by the end of 2013, with the building set to open the following year.
  • 10.
  • 11. Student Success Everett Community College is using a new $1.7 million Title lll grant from the U.S. Department of Education to help more students stay in school and graduate. The five-year grant is enhancing advising, helping every student create an effective educational plan, increasing scholarships for low- income students, funding faculty coaching and technology training, providing industry-specific language skills training, strengthening retention efforts and supporting expansion of EvCC’s web-based advising data portal. “The start-to-finish advising process we implemented this year is making a big difference for students in terms of declaring a major and developing an educational plan early,” said Dr. Sandra Fowler-Hill, EvCC Executive Vice President of Instruction and Student Services. The college is closely tracking the impact of the changes. Already, mandatory advising is making an impact – students who complete it have a 5 percent higher retention rate. Another number EvCC is celebrating is 1,000.That’s the number of students who have graduated through the award-winning EAGER program as of June 2013. The EAGER program – Entry, Assessment, GED, Employment and Retention – was created in 2004 to move parents from welfare into jobs that support their families. The overall number of EvCC grads also rose. In 2012-13, the number of students earning a degree or certificate was up 22 percent – from more than 1,800 to more than 2,200, compared with the previous year.
  • 12. innovation From the 3D printer used by engineering students to the celebration of the college’s first honors graduates, innovation is valued at EvCC. The college invests in innovation – funding an Innovations Academy for faculty and a project that explores the instructional use of mobile devices. EvCC also works closely with business and industry experts, partnering with leaders who advise programs about curriculum to ensure students get the best education. In the past year, the college expanded key programs to respond to the needs of industry, its students, and other partners. EvCC added an evening engineering program and more engineering classes, partnering with the Washington State University mechanical engineering program, which offers classes at EvCC’s Everett campus. The college also worked with University of Washington Bothell and Saint Martin’s University to offer more bachelor of science in nursing classes on EvCC’s Everett campus – 70 seats – giving the college 110 total, enough for all of the college’s registered nursing graduates.The classes make EvCC’s campus one of the largest sources of nurses with bachelor’s degrees in the state. The college has also grown its East County Campus in Monroe – doubling enrollment in the past year. Students can earn an associate’s degree without leaving East County, expanding opportunities for students to get a higher education close to home. EvCC’s first honors program graduates Dennice Bryant and Tu Le.
  • 13. Partnerships Everett Community College became one of the first colleges in Washington in 2012 to offer an aerospace composite technician certificate. The 31-credit certificate was designed in cooperation with industry subject-matter experts to meet the needs of the growing aerospace composite field. It provides entry-level knowledge and skills for employment in the composite industry. The program wouldn’t have been possible without a partnership with the Snohomish School District. All EvCC composites classes are held at Snohomish High School’s state-of-the-art lab. “I’m on my way to a job with good pay and benefits and, most importantly, work I enjoy,” said EvCC composites student Taylor Hunter, who drove tow trucks for eight years before deciding to go to college. The partnership reflects the close relationship EvCC has with Snohomish County school districts. The college has the same kind of connections with business and industry, working closely with employers to ensure graduates are prepared for the workforce. The college partners directly with employers for training through EvCC’s Corporate & Continuing Education Center. In 2012, the college was approached by leaders from The Boeing Company to design and deliver an innovative degree program for Boeing individual contributors, supervisors, and managers seeking to complete a 4-year degree. The Bachelor of Arts in Management – Organizational Excellence degree, also known as BAM, is a unique partnership between EvCC and City University of Seattle. Under the partnership, EvCC designs and delivers the first year of the program, including two professional certificate programs aligned to industry standards. Students then transfer to City University of Seattle for additional coursework but also have the option to pursue additional certificates through EvCC. In the first year of the program, EvCC trained 16 groups totaling 224 employees. Many of the classes were held on-site at Boeing-Everett and Boeing-Renton. EvCC composites student Taylor Hunter works on a repair job.
  • 14. Alumni For the Zuvela family, the impact of EvCC can be traced back three generations. Leonard Zuvela attended the college in the late 1940s through the G.I. Bill. He started a tradition that continues today.There has been a Zuvela family member attending or working at EvCC in every decade. Since 1941, the college has educated thousands of students in our community, with 80 percent of former students staying in the area to live and work. The talent developed at EvCC has long-term economic impact. College alumni and operations contribute The Zuvela family. $301.8 million to Snohomish County’s economy every year, according to an economic impact study. Attending EvCC also leaves lasting memories.Three dozen alumni and their families gathered in June 2013 to celebrate as six former athletes, one coach and five teams were inducted into EvCC’s Athletic Hall of Fame. Read more about EvCC alumni and why they chose EvCC at www.everettcc.edu/alumni Aeronautical engineer Justin Bailey, EvCC class of 2007.
  • 15. Cultural Pluralism and Global Readiness Students from Brazil, South Africa, Pakistan, India, and Indonesia attended EvCC through the Community Colleges for International Development program 2012-13. Student volunteers assist with EvCC’s Students of Color Career Conference. Adnan Syed and Sumit Karn’s countries have a rocky relationship, but the two EvCC students quickly became friends. Syed, from Pakistan, and Karn, from India, came to EvCC through the Community Colleges for International Development program funded through the U.S. State Department.The two journalism students, who wrote for the college’s newspaper and The Herald, had never met someone from each other’s country before. “I met a person from India, so I have a chance now to see how an Indian person is, from very close,” Syed told The Seattle Globalist.“And I have found he is just like me.” The two were among the 302 international students enrolled at EvCC from 25 different countries. Last year was the fifth continuous year of growth in the college’s international education program – up 400 percent since the college decided to expand its global reach. EvCC also welcomed 1,600 high school and middle school students of color to the college’s Students of Color Career Conference in March.The event is part of EvCC’s commitment to cultural pluralism and global readiness. Students learn global and cultural connections in the classroom, through community events, and by learning with students from around the globe.
  • 16. Athletics It was a moment 46 years in the making. EvCC’s baseball team reclaimed the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges championship title in May 2013, defeating the Pierce College Raiders 4-1. EvCC Trojans last won the championship in 1967. “It’s the best ride I’ve been on,” said Levi Lacey, who took over as the Trojans’ head coach in 2002.“I won a national championship as a player, but that doesn’t compare to this.Twelve years of support from (athletic director) Larry Walker — the ring means a lot for the team and the program from where we started.” EvCC restarted its baseball program in 2000 after a 20-year hiatus. Since then, 16 players have been drafted into the major leagues. The team wasn’t the only one bringing home a championship.The EvCC Trojan women’s cross country team won their third NWAACC title in four years in November 2012, the first back-to-back-title in school history. In 2012-13, more than 250 athletes participated in EvCC’s nine league sports and intramural leagues. EvCC sophomore pitcher Gunnar Swanson gave up only four hits in the NWAACC championship game. He was named MVP.
  • 17. Faculty and Staff EvCC student Jennifer Johnson Hernandez dreamed of transferring to the new Washington State University engineering program offered in Everett, but didn’t think that was possible – until she met with engineering instructor Eric Davishahl. Davishahl encouraged her to retake a few math and engineering classes and helped boost her confidence. “That first meeting I had with Eric got me back on track with my degree,” Johnson Hernandez wrote in her nomination for EvCC’s “You Made a Difference” award. She graduated from EvCC with honors and was accepted into WSU’s mechanical engineering program. Students also selected instructors Steven Horn, Rene Kratz, Theresa Markovich, Isabelle Miller, and Laura Wild for the honor.

Donna was Everett Junior College’s Woman of theYear in 1956 and had a successful career as a nurse.The Donna Dombek fund supports nursing students who, like Donna, will follow their dreams to become nurses.

Much like the mountain peaks of our region, gifts given by members of the Summit Society will last for generations. It is fitting that those who commit to such far-sighted support be honored in a group named after our enduring natural landscape.
