==History== Gloucester County voters passed a non-binding referendum in 1965, calling for the Board of Chosen Freeholders to start a community college in the county. Gloucester County College was established in 1966, when the New Jersey Department of Education approved its charter.<ref name=catalog /><ref name=gccnj.edu.history>{{cite web|url=http://www.gccnj.edu/about_gcc/collegeoverview/History.cfm|title=College Overview: History|publisher=Gloucester County College|access-date=6 November 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111006134038/http://www.gccnj.edu/about_gcc/collegeoverview/History.cfm|archive-date=6 October 2011}}</ref>

First, he wished to assume the position of director of the County Community College Presidents Association of New Jersey. Second, he alleged that the then chair of the board of trustees, Richard J. Ambacher, Jr. (later a professor emeritus of Rowan University),<ref>{{cite web|title=MEDALLIONS: DESCRIPTION AND CRITERIA – 2011|url=http://www.rowan.edu/president/senate/documents/2011MedallionDescriptions-Criteria.pdf|year=2011|page=2|publisher=Rowan University|access-date=7 February 2012}}</ref> had pressured him to get Ambacher's son a custodial job at the college and his daughter-in-law into the nursing program, which has selective admissions; he also claimed that Ambacher had otherwise interfered in college operations. Ambacher denied the allegations, and stated that he had only asked that the nursing program's admissions standards be altered to avoid bias against non-traditional students. One trustee resigned in sympathy with Reddig. A state investigation resulted in a report and letter recommending that the relationship between the board of trustees and the school be changed (including requiring the college president's approval for hiring done by the board), that trustee quorum requirements be increased, and that trustee training and selection be improved.
