Abstract	When President Obama delivered the commencement address at Miami Dade College (MDC) in April, it was yet another coup for the high-profile institution--but not a first. Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton also were graduation speakers, as the community college continues to be a magnet for national and international dignitaries. MDC has earned its place in the limelight for achievements ranging from its chart-topping enrollment of 174,000 students on eight campuses to its growing number of baccalaureate programs, making it a model for the advancement of community college education. Leading both its growth and transformation is MDC's ubiquitous president, Dr. Eduardo Padron, who was recently named chairman of the White House Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanics. Miami Dade President Eduardo Padron heads presidential advisory panels on Latino education while also serving as chair of the American Council on Education board of directors. (ERIC).
