South Orange County Community College District

South Orange County Community College District (SOCCCD), founded in 1967, has three separate campuses: Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, California, Irvine Valley College in Irvine, California and the Advanced Technology & Education Park in Tustin, California. The District is governed by a seven-member elected Board of Trustees and a Chancellor. Located north of San Diego County and stretching from the Santa Ana Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, the District's 382-square-mile (990 km2) service area encompasses the southern half of Orange County, one of California's most scenic and rapidly growing regions.

Board of trustees

The SOCCCD Board of Trustees is composed of seven trustees elected by the registered voters of the communities of south Orange County and one student member elected by the student body of Irvine Valley College and Saddleback College. Trustees, with the exception of the student member, are elected to four-year terms commencing December of the year elected. As terms are staggered, elections are held every two years in connection with the general election. The seven locally elected trustees must reside in specific areas but are elected at-large.

The current trustees and the areas that they were elected from are as follows:
