ABOUT OUR ALUMNI

Former Mount Tamalpais College students have continued their education and built careers in diverse fields. Many are spearheading advocacy, public education, and reentry efforts across the country, and are committed to a life of service upon paroling. As leaders in their communities, our alumni are often strong advocates for those still inside.

Education is an essential part of who I am and the legacy I want to leave behind. Every day is a learning experience. My passions are mechanical problem-solving, or sharing my experience to help someone else with their project.”

Other Side of the Wall is a short documentary portraiture series by filmmaker R.J. Lozada on Mount Tamalpais College alumni and their post-incarcerated lives. The film features two Mount Tamalpais College alumni, Corey McNeil and James "JC" Cavitt, on their reentry journey.
