Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees of Central Carolina Community College is charged by the General Assembly of North Carolina with the responsibility of governing the college. The college president serves under the board and reports to it.
Seventeen community members from the college's service area of Chatham, Harnett, and Lee counties sit on the board. Each is committed to excellence in education at the institution.
Members of the board are appointed to four-year terms by various government agencies: four each by the governor, Lee County Board of Education, and Lee County Board of Commissioners; and two each by the Harnett and Chatham counties boards of commissioners. A non-voting student member is appointed by the state legislature each year.
