Welcome to Gloucester County College from Interim President, Russell Davis
On behalf of our faculty, staff and alumni and fellow students, I would like to warmly welcome you to Gloucester County College. Whether this is your first college experience, or you are returning to pursue your education after a break, I invite you to this great institution and all that it has to offer.
GCC is an excellent place to expand your knowledge and to grow socially. Our academic programs prepare students for some of the best careers as well as efficient transitions to four-year colleges and universities. Class size allows our students to have one-on-one relationships with their professors, and effective collaborations with other students in the class, establishing important networks and in some cases, lasting friendships.
In addition, you can stretch creatively and socially through participation in student organizations and the Student Government Association, offering the appropriate blend of classroom and out of classroom experiences for those who choose to participate. Culturally, our campus is unmatched, as you will have the opportunity to view world-renown artists in the College Gallery, as well as other cultural activities that include music, poetry, and dramatic presentations.
If athletics is your passion, you’ve come to the right place. GCC athletic teams have earned 14 NJCAA National Championships and have had 38 teams finish in the top three in the country over the past sixteen years. Last year, the Roadrunners received the Pepsi NATYCAA Award for having the 2nd best non-scholarship NJCAA Athletic Program in the country. In addition to two National Championship Teams in 2006-07 (Wrestling and Women’s Cross Country) we had a total of five teams finish in the top three in the country and 26 GCC Student Athletes were named All-Americans. This past year GCC also won the CAANJ Cup, which is given to the best overall two-year college athletic program in New Jersey, for the sixth time. We field 13 total athletic programs including: men’s and women’s teams in cross country, tennis, basketball, soccer and outdoor track & field, as well as teams in baseball, softball and wrestling.
Community service projects, volunteerism, and service to the community are vital in becoming a full participant in your education. I invite you to visit our website at www.gccnj.edu to check out all of the possibilities. We are here for you, and one of the ways that we are assured that we are keeping pace is through your participation!
Gloucester County College for many is the start of greatness that will follow you for the rest of your life. For others, it can be a part of continued greatness and success, a pathway for the attainment of future goals and achievements. Either way, GCC has everything that you need to map your journey to success wherever you may be headed. We are absolutely excited that you have chosen GCC to get you there!
Russell A. Davis, Ed.D.
Interim President
