Campus

Doña Ana Community College has six campuses and centers located throughout Doña Ana County. Espina and East Mesa Campuses and the Workforce Center are located in Las Cruces. The Gadsden campus is located in Anthony, with Sunland Park, and Chaparral campuses located in their respective communities in the southern part of Doña Ana County.

The East Mesa Campus located on the northeast side of Las Cruces and houses most of the general education programs, criminal justice, culinary, business, creative media, and information technology programs. The Espina Campus is located on the west side of the New Mexico State University main campus, and is the main location for the health and trades programs. The Workforce Center is located in central Las Cruces and offers customized training for employee development and career and technical training, such as truck driving and industry certifications.[6] The Gadsden Center located in the southeastern portion of the county offers general education and adult education programs. The Sunland Park Center in Santa Teresa offers general education, adult basic education, and welding. The Chaparral location offers classes in adult basic education and continuing education. Dual credit programs are also offered in conjunction with local high schools.[5]

Accreditation

The school is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. Several programs at Doña Ana Community College have specialized accreditation:[1]

Nursing program

In 2012, the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission revoked accreditation for the college's nursing program. Although the New Mexico Board of Nursing permitted the program to continue, accreditation is a prerequisite for employment in most hospitals and acceptance into other nursing programs, such as the one at New Mexico State.[7] In 2010 the school had been placed on warning status by the commission for having an inadequate ratio of qualified instructors. A lawsuit filed in 2013 by eight nursing students alleges that the school had not notified students of the warning, and had been made aware of the problem as early as 2002.[8] In May 2015, a state judge ruled that the lawsuit would become a class action, and would include the 100 students enrolled at the time.[9] In August 2015, it was announced that accreditation had been fully restored. This applied retroactively to students who graduated the previous May.[10][11]
