History[edit]
Since its establishment in 1945, East Los Angeles College has been responsible for providing academic and career services and opportunities to thousands of students, many of which hail from the surrounding communities of Monterey Park and East Los Angeles and currently boasts an enrollment of over 34,000. [2]
During its seventy-year existence, the college has played an enormous role in building and reaching out to local citizens, many of whom have become well-established in their respective fields, some of which include L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and artist Kent Twitchell. The purpose of the Alumni association is to ensure that all of its graduates stay connected with the college and continually contribute to its growth even after their transition to mainstream universities, careers, and occupations. In addition, the Alumni Association encourages students to live and realize the motto of the college "Start at ELAC." [3]
