The Program Coordinator and the Office Assistant at the Center are crucial members of the team. They provide all of the expected clerical support that a large department requires. Plus, because the Center is several miles from the main campus, and because of the nature of the open enrollment process, their jobs mirror the tasks performed by registrars, attendance accountants, financial accountants and maintenance supervisors on the main campus. And, they provide constant cheerful, helpful and compassionate assistance to students throughout the day.

Terry Przybylinski began working as the Program Coordinator in summer 2006. She has a long history of very important positions on the main campus, including Administrative Assistant to the Vice President of Instruction. In her words, “This is quite frankly the most meaningful job I’ve ever had. Everyone is so happy here. I love coming to work. And, I'm impressed at how all the complex college processes have been simplified for our students.”

Judy Peretto started her second career at Cabrillo in 1998 after working twenty-three years for a local bank. She assists students with registration and helps to keep things running smoothly.

In her words, “The staff and students provide such a warm, nurturing work environment, I cannot imagine being anywhere else. Rehabilitation is provided in an educational setting and is an asset to our community.”
