After two and a half years of virtual competition, the IVC Speech Team made its victorious return to in-person competition earlier this month at the 2022 PSCFA Warm-Up Tournament hosted by El Camino College. Fifteen colleges and universities from across Southern California and Arizona came together to compete at the event.
Jeff Botwin has one piece of advice when it comes to achieving an overdue goal: “It’s never too late.” And while it wasn’t easy, the IVC alum’s decision to return to college proved well worth the investment.
“Going back to school can be unnerving. It can feel like you're going backwards,” admits Botwin. “But for me, it was really enjoyable … it was something that made me happier since it was taking me in the right direction.”

Dear IVC Community:
As we learn of the increasing violent acts in Iran – including at Sharif University and on high school campuses, we extend our support as this news can be upsetting and distressing, especially for those in the Irvine Valley College (IVC) community who have close ties with the country and Iranian community.
IVC unwaveringly supports the empowerment of women around the world to choose the way they wish to present themselves without fear of violence, imprisonment, persecution, or death.
These policies and procedures are for proctoring services in the DTC1.
The Spoken Word Club aims to connect with and celebrate the diversity and backgrounds of our community on a deeply personal level, as well as develop and stimulate student interest in storytelling and creative writing. We hope to hold thematic bi-yearly performances to further enable self-expression.
The Board Game Club shall promote public awareness of alternate forms of tabletop, party, role-playing, and digital games, and stimulate student interest in creatively collaborating and meeting new people. A successful Board Game Club should help its members build necessary improvising, collaborating, strategizing, problem solving, planning, and leadership skills.
IVC has been awarded an Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISI) grant from the US Department of Education. The five-year, $1.9 million grant will allow IVC to implement the Equitable Learning Experience Valuing Achievement, Transfer, Empowering Asian American Pacific Islander (ELEVATE AAPI @IVC) program, building upon previous AANAPISI funding and outcomes. The project, which begins this month, will be led by Counselor Marianne Wolfe under the leadership of Dean of Liberal Arts Brooke Bui.
