Description
"Over the past decade, Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) has earned a national reputation for its
accomplishments in creating successful learning environments for its students. The College’s Learning
Communities are the cornerstone of a comprehensive student success agenda that has resulted in a
28% increase since 2003 in fall-to-fall retention, a key indicator of progress toward degree completion.
Most notable is the college-wide increase in retention for students of color, who represent nearly 60% of
BHCC’s enrollment. This session explores two Learning Communities that are providing a rich learning
experience for BHCC’s diverse population."
