LaGCC in the News: National Voice on Behalf of Community Colleges

Dear Friends,

LaGuardia Community College has certainly been in the headlines. I want to share with you just some of the recent media coverage in which LaGuardia Community College features prominently.

In addition, our own Vice President for Adult and Continuing Education, Jane Schulman, attended the White House Summit on Community Colleges, chaired by Dr. Jill Biden. Our news release will give you a sense of this important and exciting event.

These articles again demonstrate how LaGuardia Community College continues its almost 40-year tradition as a pioneering institution and as a national voice on behalf of community colleges.

I hope you have a moment to read the articles and the news release.
