Victoria Dominguez is currently Dean of Mathematics and Business and Interim Dean of Career Technical and Continuing Education at Citrus College in Glendora, CA. She was also an 8-year math faculty member at Citrus College, teaching across the discipline from Arithmetic to Calculus. In 2017, a team of four faculty (including Victoria) modified the curriculum to eliminate four levels of remedial mathematics and instead offer corequisite remediation and multiple measures assessment. Victoria was the first Community of Practice lead for Introductory Statistics and worked with the Citrus College math faculty to develop and implement innovative changes to classroom pedagogy. Six math pathways are open-access for all students, with their program of study determining which pathway the student should take. Allowing students the opportunity to complete their transfer-level math class and move on to their major course work in their quest for graduation and transfer has been transformative for Citrus College students.
