JoAnn Trinkle
and Fred Monroe
Community leaders like Washington County Board of Supervisors Chairwoman JoAnn Trinkle and Warrren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe look forward to the many benefits the Regional Higher Education Center will bring to our regional economy. Soon, more local people will remain in the area during their college years rather than taking their tuition dollars, buying power and brain power to the Capital District, Vermont or beyond.

Bryan, Jr.
ACC’s central mission of providing quality two-year degree programs will be strengthened as more students begin their college careers at ACC, knowing they have the option of continuing on to earn a four-year degree on the same campus. J. Buckley Bryan, Jr., who earned three degrees on the ACC campus and now serves as an adjunct faculty member and president of the ACC Foundation Board, is so encouraged by the prospects for ACC’s future that he has made a lead gift in excess of $1 million to help build the Center.

“Glens Falls Hospital already relies heavily on ACC’s two-year registered nursing program to meet its nursing needs. Now, ACC’s partnership with SUNY Plattsburgh at the Regional Higher Education Center will make it possible for more local nurses to earn bachelor’s degrees, further enhancing the expertise and care available at the Hospital.”
