2021 Year in Review
2021 Year In Review
BUTLER COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Welcome
Like always, you did not only what it took to get the job done in 2021. You went above. You went beyond.
Early mornings, late nights, weekends and holiday breaks 鈥� each a testament to your dedication to our student-centered institution. I thank you. Our students thank you.
For creating practical nursing and health care science programs. For envisioning learning opportunities in new facilities in Armstrong County and on our main campus. For instructing our quality programs in a variety of formats. For staging our walk-thru outdoor commencement. For confronting food insecurity and for assisting community health care. For achieving another ranking as the No. 1 community college in Pennsylvania and another designation as a military-friendly school. And for restoring our work.
Like always, you did not only what it took to get the job done in 2021. You went above. You went beyond.
