Faculty Retirements
Steven L. Aurilio, B.A., M.P.A.
Professor, Administration of Justice
Years of Service: 1995 – 2024
Professor Steven L. Aurilio, originally from Chicago, Illinois, moved to Daly City, California in 1961, enrolling as a freshman at Jefferson High School. He attended the College of San Mateo where he was introduced to their Administration of Justice Program, inspiring him to pursue careers in law enforcement and teaching. At age 19, he enlisted in the Army as an MP.
He served in Vietnam, assigned to B Company, 720th Military Police Battalion (the only combat-tested MP unit in the history of the Army), where his unit conducted tactical ambush & reconnaissance sweeps within a 22-square mile area in Bien Hoa and Long Binh provinces. On July 24, 2023, at a ceremony held at the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., Steve and his unit were awarded the Army’s third highest military honor, the Bronze Star Medal.
In 1969, he launched his career as a police officer with the Daly City Police Department, graduating at the top of his academy class at CSM. He promoted to detective and then to sergeant, serving in such assignments as street crimes suppression, gang intelligence, hostage negotiations, community relations, training & recruitment, and patrol. His police commendations include recognition by the California State Senate and the California State Assembly. He was honorably retired in 2003 after 33 years of service. He serves on the Daly City Police Athletic League Board, and in 2009 founded the Daly City PAL-Ed $2,500 Scholarship Award which has benefited many of Skyline’s ADMJ students over the years.
He is a graduate of the 165th session of the prestigious FBI National Academy at Quantico, Virginia, and the Sherman Block Law Enforcement Leadership Institute in Sacramento. He has a master’s degree in public administration from Notre Dame de Namur University, a bachelor’s degree in public service and criminal justice from the University of San Francisco, and an associate degree in police science from the College of San Mateo. He holds a California Community Colleges (Lifetime) Teaching Credential in Administration of Justice.
Professor Aurilio has always been passionate about teaching. He began as an adjunct instructor in Administration of Justice at Skyline College in 1995, and selected for the ADMJ Department’s only fulltime position in 2006. He received a “Special Recognition Award” (2010) and the “Phil Meyer Excellence in Teaching Award” (2011) from the Academic Senate.
In retirement, Steve plans to spend time with his wife, Elizabeth, family, and working on finishing a book he started writing about the B Company MP “Bushwhackers” in Vietnam.
Rosemary “Rosie” Bell, B.A., M.A.
Professor of History
Years of Service: 1999 - 2024
Rosemary (Rosie) Bell has spent the last 34 years of her life teaching at Skyline College and is still in awe when she walks across the campus. To think that she has been paid to do what she loves is truly a blessing that many will not enjoy.
Like many students today, she struggled to receive her education. In 1969, when Rosie applied to the City University of New York she was denied. Her high school average wasn’t good enough and there wasn’t an open admissions policy. Rosie’s mother reminded her that she didn’t think her youngest was smart enough to go to college. In 1972, when CUNY offered a college education to anyone who was willing, Rosie took the plunge. She was the first in her family to attend college. She also worked full time during her undergraduate and graduate years.
Education is Liberation! It took Rosie over forty years to put words to the feelings of euphoria she felt to be learning about the world, and more importantly, about herself. Going to college was the best thing she ever did for herself. The intellectual stimulation was overwhelming.
In 1978 Rosie was lucky enough to land a job as an administrative assistant at New York University. Along with the job came free tuition! She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in history in 1978, then went on and earned a master’s degree from New York University in 1980. Her mother ‘ate her words’ and apologized to Rosie about her earlier remark.
Rosie’s passion for social justice came early. Honestly, she didn’t know what that
term meant when she 7 or 8 years old, but she does remember vividly watching TV and
seeing young black people being attacked by police dogs and firehoses, all because
they peacefully sat at a lunch counter trying to buy a Coke. This memory, as painful
as it was, would guide her throughout her life’s work.
In 1980, Rosie moved to San Francisco, got a job as an admissions counselor at UCSF
School of Dentistry. She loved the job, but there was a yearning for something that
she did not have the courage to do – teach. Overcoming her lack of self-confidence,
she sent out resumes and began her teaching career in the summer of 1990. She had
found her niche.
Rosie has taught thousands of students at Skyline College for 34 years. She is most proud of coordinating the Women In Transition Program (WIT) for 16 years. WIT encouraged women who had never been to college to dream. Many went on to universities and or began careers that helped them become self-sufficient. Another organization that Rosie is very proud to have been faculty advisor for is the Gay and Straight Alliance in 2002.
Rosie was also instrumental in expanding the history department’s course offering over the years. She created courses such as Women and the American Experience, History of the Middle East, The Holocaust, Europe Since 1945, LGBTQ history, and other courses focusing on world societies. Rosie was on the Honors Program Advisory Board and helped create protocols for the program. For years she taught Honors’ classes, offering students a challenging curriculum and guidance. She’d like to forget how many curriculum committees, educational policy, or scholarship meetings she attended!
Finally: To her students, remember…Knowledge is power. Use it wisely. These are not empty words.
To her dear Skyline family who made her laugh, cry, curse, dance among other things the last 34 years of her life…a heartfelt thank you.
She has no plans other than spending time in South Lake Tahoe, sitting in the backyard counting the Sugar pine cones.
Carlos A. Colombetti, B.A., Ph.D.
Professor, Philosophy
Years of Service: 1998 - 2024
Carlos Colombetti has lived in the Bay Area since he was 8 years old, his parents having immigrated to California from their native Rosario, Argentina. He attended Saint Francis High School in Mountain View, where he was an avid soccer player, and then nearby Foothill College, where he majored in philosophy and also acquired a life-long interest in history, sciences, and the arts. It was at Foothill College—thanks to some great teachers—that he decided to pursue the career of college professor. He transferred to U. C. Berkeley to complete his undergraduate studies. By good fortune, these formative years were lived in a residence hall that had mostly international students and a cultural exchange program.
After Berkeley, he went on to earn a Ph.D. in philosophy at U. C. Irvine in 1992 with a doctoral thesis in international political philosophy. From 1992 to 1995 he was a postdoctoral lecturer at Stanford University for their program in Cultures, Ideas and Values. He then taught courses in logic and critical thinking part-time at Santa Rosa Junior College and City College of San Francisco. In 1998, he was hired as a full-time professor at Skyline College. In addition to teaching a range of philosophy courses, he served as faculty advisor for the Skyline Philosophy Club and was one of the co-founders of the Gay-Straight Alliance and the Honors Transfer Program. In recent years, his academic focus is in the intersection of philosophy of religion and science through the application of logic and probability theory. He has co-authored six articles published in peer-reviewed academic journals.
