“We are constantly working on improving our cybersecurity program,” Warner said. “Our students can actually perform tasks in a live environment and understand how compliance works. They learn how to hack into systems and learn about web interfacing. When a student earns their degree with us, for me, as an instructor, I feel that they can step into an environment and perform tasks with a limited amount of training.”

“We recognize the significance of what this past year has taught us, and we continue to work toward finding common ground through difficult conversations, building up marginalized communities, advocating for equality and ensuring that everyone’s voice is heard,” said RCBC Education Instructor Corvena Francis-Denton, who chairs the African American Cultural Committee. “We still have work to do, and that’s why we’re here -- to continue to push forward and open doors.”  

“Helping community members aligns with one of the core pillars of RCBC’s mission, so why not a local filmmaker? I thought it could provide an experiential learning experience to our students while also fulfilling our commitment to serving the community,” Mailhiot shared.

“Coming from a background where my future was very uncertain, it was something about the atmosphere, the independence and the professors with doctorates telling me to call them by their first name that changed things for me,” Anderson said. “It was something very enlightening and having success in class was a confidence builder. You know, it releases chemicals in your brain; it’s a good feeling. I’ve never lost it. To me, it was coming into myself and realizing I could do something.”

“Going into this, I had no idea what to expect, but I am happy I chose to do so. I’ve met so many amazing people who are teaching me things I never thought I would ever get the chance to learn. They are some of the kindest and down-to-earth people you could ever come in contact with, and they’ve made such an impact on my life in such a short amount of time. I am very thankful that RCBC chose me to take on this great journey.” 

“We care about the health and well-being of all of our patients, and since the onset of the pandemic, we’ve implemented COVID-specific protocols, including touchless temperature checks, a virtual waiting area, mask requirements, frequent disinfecting with medical-grade cleaners and more,” RCBC’s Director of Dental Hygiene Gail Vasilenko said. “Unfortunately, tooth decay doesn’t take a break during a pandemic, but neither will we. We look forward to serving our community during this great time of need.”

“We’re proud to be recognized by the Association of Technology, Management and Engineering”, said Dr. Edem Tetteh, Dean of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). “Rowan College at Burlington County provides students with the best education opportunities possible, and it’s rewarding to receive affirmation from such a reputable organization.”

“Students ask me all the time about how to fill out the FAFSA, which loans are available, what HESAA does and various financial aid questions, so discussing these topics in a public forum will definitely be beneficial to our community,” Berdugo-Hernandez said.

“RCBC was close, accessible and in my budget range for this shift in my life,” Cavanaugh shared.
