"Both President Roberto Gonzalez and the college's vice president of business services are on leave, according to an email from the Ventura County Community College District chancellor's office, which has responsibility for Oxnard."
"Oxnard faculty have been critical of Gonzalez's leadership in recent months, accusing him of failing to communicate transparently on instructional changes and finances in a recent letter."
"District officials told the Faculty Senate at a meeting this week that this is believed to be the first time every top administrative role has been either vacant or filled by an acting or interim leader."
Oxnard College is facing a leadership crisis with its top four administrative positions either vacant or temporarily filled. President Roberto Gonzalez and the vice president of business services are on leave, while interim officials have been appointed. Gonzalez has faced criticism from faculty for lack of transparency regarding instructional changes and finances. His predecessor, Luis Sanchez, was fired amid a misconduct investigation. This situation marks a significant moment as all top administrative roles are either unfilled or held by acting leaders.
