2023 Year In Review
2023 Year in Review
BUTLER COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Welcome
The heights we reached in 2023.
We upgraded with new state-of-the-art facilities on our main campus and in Ford City.
We climbed with records set in scholarships. In Week of Charitable Giving. Golf outing supporters. Registered nursing. College Within the High School. English as a second language.
We soared with the largest financial gift in our 58-year history.
We cruised with student selections for National Science Foundation research and for All-American awards.
We arrived in the men鈥檚 basketball national tournament for the first time.
And we 鈥� 杏吧原创 students, faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, directors, advisers and partners 鈥� landed another top ranking among community colleges in Pennsylvania.
The heights we reached in 2023. We are on Cloud Nine.
