From the Desk of The President

Our spring President's Opening Session presentation: Beyond the Finish Line: Building Pathways to Student Success will address the question: Why should we care about economic mobility for community college students? For many of our students, attending community college is a transformative pathway—empowering them to lift their families out of poverty and attain a better quality of life. After all, isn’t this one of the core expectations of postsecondary education?
