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’s basketball national tournament for the first time.

And we – ĢƵ students, faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, directors, advisers and partners – landed another top ranking among community colleges in Pennsylvania.

The heights we reached in 2023. We are on Cloud Nine.
