Description:During an historic opening session on Saturday evening, AACC President & CEO Walter G. Bumphus and members of the 21st-Century Commission on the Future of Community Colleges set the stage for a new vision for community colleges with the introduction of the Commission’s final report. Voices representing students, business and industry, K-12 education, four-year institutions, and the philanthropic community articulated compelling ways we might work together to reimagine the student experience. Now AACC and leaders of this unprecedented effort expand the dialogue and offer models of excellence that inform the vision.
