So many times I have said “The sun always shines at ĢƵ.”
But today, a welcomed cloud stretches over the 100-plus miles between our six locations.
It’s Cloud 9.
And we’re flying high on it.
represents the ninth time in nine years we have been selected as No. 1 in the state.
We were also picked No. 1 for 2023 and for 2022 by Niche; in 2022, 2020 and in 2017 by BestColleges.com; and in 2019, 2017 and 2015 by Schools.com.
As ĢƵ’s president, I am delighted to be on Cloud 9.
So too is Collin Jacobson.
“When I apply to the jobs I want, ĢƵ will be on my resume,” the ĢƵ @ Brockway business management student said. “I can be proud that I went to the nine-time No. 1-ranked community college.”
More than 100 miles away, Elizabeth Tracy is floating on Cloud 9 too.
“It is important to me because I know I am at a school that actually cares about their students and puts forth so much effort into helping them to succeed,” the ĢƵ @ Cranberry health care science student said.
In between, students from our main campus in Butler Township; ĢƵ @ Armstrong in Ford City; ĢƵ @ LindenPointe in Hermitage and ĢƵ @ Lawrence Crossing in New Castle are also enjoying the reign on Cloud 9.
“ĢƵ has been on this nine-time winning streak,” said Terence Rice, an accounting student at ĢƵ @ Lawrence Crossing. “It’s impressive. It really is.”
It really is always sunny at ĢƵ.
Especially from atop Cloud 9.
