We don't live on an island. Although some of us may wish at times to isolate ourselves from the rest of the world, it is our relationships with others that make us who we are. Same goes for colleges. Stacy Collett writes about the importance of community colleges making local partners in a recent article in "Community College Times," a publication of the American Association of Community Colleges.
TCC has ties with numerous organizations, agencies, K-12 public schools, and higher education institutions both locally and regionally. These connections help TCC fully engage students and the community in dozens of learning activities and outreach programs.
To name a few:
Launch
TCC StartUp Cup
EcoFest
Signature Symphony at TCC
Veterans Services
Continuing Education/Professional Development
EXCELerate
Global Education
OSU
OU
TPS
UPS
And much, much more.
TCC has partnerships with so many organizations it is nearly impossible for me to have a list that includes them all. Do you know of a partnership to add to the list? If so, please leave a comment.
