Columbia-Greene CC Honors Transfer Students

HUDSON – National Transfer Student Week launched in 2017 – occurring the third week of October each year – and Columbia-Greene Community College has participated every year since.

Organized by the National Institute for the Study of Transfer Students (NISTS), National Transfer Student Week celebrates both transfer students and the professionals who support them on their academic journeys.

As a two-year institution, C-GCC calls attention to just a handful of its successful alumni who’ve gone on to study at four-year colleges, underscoring the many opportunities open to transfer students who start their careers in higher education at community colleges.

The College’s own ‘Transfer All-stars’ are nominated by faculty, staff, and administration at the college, and featured on C-GCC’s website and social media channels through the creation of digital ‘trading cards’ detailing their accomplishments.

C-GCC’s 2020 Transfer All-stars are:

Michael Alert ’19 of Hudson, N.Y.; attending Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga.

Sean Berry ’20 of Tivoli, N.Y.; attending Salem University, Salem, West Va.

Randy Dunham ’19 of Haines Falls, N.Y., attending The College of Saint Rose, Albany, N.Y.

Olive Shaffer ’19 of Nassau, N.Y.; attending University at Albany – SUNY, Albany, N.Y.
