MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN
"As an educator, few things are more rewarding than witnessing students achieve their academic goals and graduate from college. It represents the culmination of years of hard work, dedication, and sacrifice on the part of the students and their families. Seeing students walk across the stage, receive their diplomas, and move on to the next phase of their lives is a reminder of the transformative power of education and the impact that it can have on the lives of individuals and their communities."
