CCC 1st Intl Ed Initiative at Tunxis

Hartford Courant - July 18, 2017

Tunxis Launches the Connecticut Community Colleges’ First International Education Initiative

Students of the Connecticut Community Colleges (CCCs) are on a 10-day trip to Paris this month to participate in an "Environment-Energy Bootcamp" sponsored by the French Embassy in the U.S. and several partners. All four of the CCCs' student bootcamp applications were awarded, and the four were among only 20 students accepted in a nationwide competition. They will receive credit for participation, and will share their experiences at their colleges when they return home.
