Community College Faculty Union Votes ‘No Confidence’ in Chancellor Goldsmith

The State Center Federation of Teachers union issued a “no confidence” statement against Chancellor Carole Goldsmith on Monday, citing a toxic culture of retaliation under her leadership. The vote was unanimous among 250 union members who participated out of 1,200 total members. The union claims that legal expenses have tripled, and faculty morale is at an all-time low due to Goldsmith’s actions. Goldsmith says she remains committed to bargaining in good faith and moving forward together with the district, but critics argue that her leadership has fostered a culture of fear and silencing student voices.
