State of the College 2022
Letter from the President
The theme of this year’s Annual Report is Securing the Future. An educational institution’s perspective is, almost by definition, forward-facing as we prepare students for their futures. However, the challenges brought about by the pandemic have increased the critical nature of securing the future, both for our students as well as the college.Continuing the heroic efforts of our faculty, staff and administrators from the pandemic’s outset, Westchester Community College was able to remotely provide students with the same high-quality education and servicing that students had experienced in person prior to the pandemic. The results of these efforts are evidenced by the success of our students. The graduation rate of our students increased to 24.5% from 19.5% in the year prior. Many of our students pursued their academic goals at such four-year institutions as Harvard, Columbia, Cornell and NYU, as well as SUNY campuses and local four-year institutions. Our students received such honors as the Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship and the PepsiCo Foundation S.M.I.L.E. Scholarship. Other students stepped right into the local job market, filling high-demand middle skills jobs that help fuel the region’s economic growth.Notwithstanding the successes we witnessed during this year of remote delivery, we are and will continue to be an institution that recognizes the value and importance of face-to-face education and student services. But our ability to reach a wider audience is augmented through the experience and expertise we have gained in providing our benefits remotely. As we face enrollment pressures, offering such options that meet the needs of our students will position us well in what will continue to be an increasingly competitive marketplace.
Our academic programming does, and will, position the college as an integral resource for our county’s business community. The college continues to be recognized for its ground-breaking programs, including our innovative Cybersecurity program, one of only nine community colleges nationwide to be designated a Center for Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education by the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Security Agency (NSA).
As we look back on our first 75 years, we do so with both eyes focused on the future – for our students and for our institution.
Impact of COVID-19
The past school year was the first in which we were impacted by the pandemic from beginning to end. With the onset of COVID-19 in March 2020, the faculty, staff and administration moved quickly to protect public health, shift to a pre-dominantly online format for courses and student services, and transition to remote operations for most of the 1,000 employees.
Notwithstanding these efforts, many students and prospective students opted to delay their education, whether due to health concerns, family matters, financial hardships or job opportunities. Westchester Community College experienced a decrease in enrollment of credit-seeking students from Spring 2020 to Spring 2021 of 14.2%, comparable to the national community college average decrease of 9.5%. The decline in enrollments at WCC was even greater for non-credit students (42.5%) during the same timeframe.
COVID Response
During the pandemic, students:
- Received over $15 million in Federal Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) grants
- Received an additional $230,000 in financial support from the WCC Foundation over and above scholarship distributions of approximately $4.5 million during the 2020 and 2021 fiscal years
- Were provided with 300+ laptops if they did not have technology at home
- Administered and tracked over 17,000 COVID tests
- Secured over 50,000 pieces of PPE (Personal Protection Equipment)
Securing the Future: Students
While the pandemic required a laser-like focus on the needs of our students and the College in the moment, it was still incumbent upon us to simultaneously look ahead and prepare for the future – both for our students and for the College.
When preparing our students for their future, a significant step in that journey is the completion of their studies at the College. A key measure of this milestone is the 3-year graduation rate; that is, what percent of incoming students earn their degree within three years. This year 24.5% of our students graduated within three years, compared to 19.5% in the prior year and 16.9% the year before that.
These students are securing their future and that of their families. 21% of WCC students who begin their academic journey from the bottom fifth of the income quintile end up in the top fifth later in life. WCC is ranked 21st nationwide on this measure of community colleges.
Westchester Community College continues to provide students with a campus environment that promotes diversity, inclusion, equity and social responsibility. WCC has one of the most diverse campuses in the SUNY system, with over 60% of its students being Latinx or African American. This year WCC received the second-highest Campus Pride Score of any community college in the United States, highlighting that WCC is a welcoming destination for members of the LGBTQIA+ community. WCC was also recognized as a Voter Friendly Campus, one of 231 campuses nationwide to receive this designation as an institution helping students overcome barriers to participating in the political process.
Securing the Future: Institutional
Westchester Community College continues to build institutional capacity as a high-performing community-based educational organization.

WCC has used this extraordinary federal assistance to address students’ financial, academic and student support needs resulting from COVID disruption and to invest in long-term resiliency with campus health and safety and remote, hybrid and technology integrated learning initiatives.WCC also pursued other federal, state and foundation supported grants to secure a long-term bright future for the college and to enhance academic innovation and excellence and elevate the student experience.
Federal, State and Foundation Supported Grants
WCC is committed to making a difference by supporting student success:
CCAMPIS (Child Care Access Means Parents in School, US Department of Education) (5) and SUNY Family Empowerment grants meet students’ need for affordable, quality childcare and provide a support system to help students achieve their educational and career goals. Ninety-six percent of student-parents who received CCAMPIS subsidies said they would have been unable to attend college without support.
Students in WCC’s TRIO Student Support Services (6), Title V Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions (7) (both US Department of Education) and Viking ROADS grants (Laura and John Arnold Foundation) who receive case-managed academic, financial, and career/transfer counseling are more likely to stay in school, complete their degrees and transfer, doubling graduation rates when compared with peers.

Securing the Future
The College has made a determined effort to increase graduation rates, which has been positively impacted due to a campus-wide awareness and the ongoing coordination of support efforts across departments. Initiatives include:
- Viking Success allows students, faculty and staff to collaborate towards improving academic achievement and facilitating easy outreach and communication targeting student support.
- Degree Works, is an interactive audit tool providing students a hands-on review of their graduation application status and courses applied for their degree.
- Success Navigators work closely with curriculum chairs to identify students eligible to graduate and assist them through the process.
- Viking ROADS (Resources for Obtaining Associates Degrees and Success) is a replication of CUNY’s highly successful ASAP program, a comprehensive system of supports that center on an intrusive counseling model and active case management by a dedicated academic counselor.
- WCC’s Department of Mental Health & Counseling Services provides a range of clinical and psychoeducational services to the college community, with over 76% of students who received individual DMHCS services in the fall semester re-enrolling in the spring semester, and an additional 4% graduating or transferring.
- Westchester Community College Foundation’s Pathways Campaign has funded the creation, piloting, and bringing to scale new initiatives that have increased college readiness, ensured a strong start, and provided appropriate support along the way.
Student Profiles
Ramatoulaye Diallo – Hirsch Family Endowed Scholarship
I am an immigrant from Guinea in West Africa. I left everything behind, family and friends, to chase my life’s dream. I knew America is the place that would make my dreams come true. I’m the first person in my family who has the chance to pursue a college education. I will hopefully not be the last, as I hope to be an inspiration for others.
I know that if my mother were still alive, she would be so proud of my pursuit of my dream to caring for the lives of others in the healthcare field. With your help, this dream is becoming more of a reality. I share with you my immense joy and appreciation for your support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Madeline Moronga – Hirsch Family Endowed Scholarship
I grew up in a small area in White Plains where government funding wasn’t enough to make ends meet and help my family survive. So many kids my age don’t worry about if they were eating dinner nightly, if it was safe to take a walk at dawn because gun shootings were considered a normal thing in places like these, and most kids weren’t ashamed of their own home. Since I turned 16, I took it upon myself to apply for a work permit and get two jobs to help my single mother pay the bills. During high school, I took on other charges, including our monthly light bills, and cable bills and eventually was able to purchase my first, very own, bed.
The challenging parts of living in a poor neighborhood contributed to my determination to work harder towards my goals. I look forward to achieving success and enjoy the benefits of academic excellence. I soon hope to see my efforts pay off by becoming a nurse. I am no longer ashamed of where I grew up or for my strong mother, who put her personal needs aside to help her children. I’d love to be able to prove that students with drive and a desire to be better can accomplish great things in life and can later become role models for future generations.
Without a doubt, this scholarship will play a key role in achieving my educational dreams. Because of your generosity, the financial burden placed on me to pursue my education will be reduced. That means I can spend more time on my studies, with my mom, on research and extracurricular activities and less time worrying about my finances. Thank you again for your investment in WCC and the futures of students like me.
Kevin Harman – Nancy Jo Abeles Scholarship
I am 20 years old and in my final semester as a Fashion Design & Technology major from the Bronx. It means a lot to have made it this far in my education for many reasons. I will be the first in my family to graduate college. When I started at WCC I was homeless, going to school full time and working full time. Being raised in low income housing by a struggling single mother taught me how to be dedicated and work hard. My education is extremely important to me as I know it is the key to my dreams: Being a world-famous lingerie and swimwear designer and being able to repay my mother for everything she ever did for me.
This award has changed my life as it has taken a huge burden off my back, and thankfully I do not have to worry about my education expenses. This is the greatest gift I could ever receive. I hope that, after starting my own business I can give back to WCC students by starting a scholarship program or an internship/employment program. I cannot express my gratitude for this scholarship enough, and I am extremely thankful to have been given such an amazing gift.
Mildred Maldonado – Jandon Promise Scholarship
My parents emigrated to the United States seeking a better future for my siblings and me. They realized that in their native Guatemala, which is stricken with poverty and corruption, there were little to no opportunities to succeed. They came here and worked back-breaking jobs that not many others wanted and worked long hours to give my siblings and I opportunities that would allow us the chance to succeed. I want all my parents sacrifices and hard work to pay off and to be able to show them how grateful I am for all they have done for me.
This award will change my life because it allows me to continue working towards my Associate’s degree. I intend to transfer to a four-year school to earn my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. In the future I see myself teaching in an elementary school and becoming an ESL teacher. Being Hispanic I never forget my roots or where I came from. I want to help the youth that come to the United States with dreams and goals be able to obtain them.
Berlinette Tejada – Metallica’s All Within My Hands Scholarship
I am a 36-year-old single mother of three (ages 18, 13 and 3). I would like my children to have everything I could not have, and that is why I must show them how important it is to have an education in life, to set goals for themselves, to do the right things to have a great future.
My so recently graduated high school; I was so proud of him. I waited years to go back to school because I wanted my son to complete his education with no worries. Now I am proud of myself that I am back in school. Education is important to me because I always wanted to have a moment in my life where I can walk the stage, accomplish everything that I have ever wanted, to show my children everything is possible at any age, I would love for my parents to see me finish my education and make them proud.
Jose Nunes – Pepsi Foundation Uplift Scholarship
My family immigrated to the United States when I was 4 years old. Both of my parents received only an elementary school education, not because of a lack of intelligence or academic ability, but because of their family needs. This was the norm in my family and community for many generations.
I am the first family member to go to middle school, to graduate from high school, and graduate from college. I know how valuable access to education is and I do not take it for granted. I am an electronics and computer teacher at Saunders Trades and Technical High School in Yonkers. Most of my students are first generation immigrants like me and face similar challenges that I faced. The Uplift Scholarship enabled me to take the Red Hat Administration course that will allow me to learn current marketable skills that are in demand and to teach them to my students. This scholarship is not just for me, but for the 60 students I teach every year. Thank you for investing in me and my students.
Ivan Woodard – Pepsi Foundation Uplift Scholarship
As a black transgender person, I have experienced many of the societal barriers that prevent many people of color from entering technology fields. I grew up in Fayetteville, NC and had a very scarce education in science and math, mostly due to the trials of growing up with a single parent and struggling with a variety of economic stressors. But with my mom being my biggest supporter, she packed my bag for me and sent me to New York for college, where I went on to get my first degree in art history with a focus in digital art and design.
My goal is to gain the skills to be a web developer and combine my training in art and technology to create accessible websites for businesses and creatives in need of a web presence. I thank PepsiCo for this opportunity. I am grateful for this scholarship and your support of lifelong learners like me.
Honoring Faculty/Staff
Dr. Miles
While ensuring continuity of academic and service operations across multiple teams during pandemic disruption, social justice unrest, and economic uncertainty, Dr. Belinda Miles was also called upon to provide strategy and insight on these topics to local and national audiences of the Business Council of Westchester, Non-Profit Westchester, Good for Girls, Inc., the American Association of Community Colleges Workforce Development Institute, and Webster University.

Professor Maria Clinton
Maria Clinton, an adjunct professor of Film at WCC, won Outstanding Short Documentary at the 42nd Annual News and Documentary Emmy Awards for the film she co-directed, “The Love Bugs.” The documentary is the story of two entomologists, Lois and Charlie O’Brien, who share their love of bugs and of each other. This Emmy Award is just one of the many awards that the film has received since its premier in May 2019.
Ms. Clinton teaches Digital Storytelling and Documentary Video as part of the Digital Filmmaking program. Comments her students share about her include, “Professor Clinton is very passionate and knowledgeable about film and it shows.” And “[The class} really helped me expand my view on filmmaking.” It is this passion and expertise that exemplifies the faculty of WCC and the high-quality education students receive at the College.
Professor Nicole Tschampel
Professor Nicole Tschampel was recognized by the Westchester Community College Foundation for its annual Excellence in Service Award. Professor Tschampel has been teaching in the Department of Art and Design as a full-time faculty member at WCC since 2012, serving since that time as the Curriculum Chair. She has served in other department-level leadership roles, including Co-Department Chair from 2015-18, developing a new degree program in photography, the creation of six new courses in the visual arts and significant revisions to four more, the development and maintenance of a departmental Blackboard shell, and other activities related to her department.

“Professor Tschampel stands out for the level of service she devotes to WCC,” said Chairperson of the Foundation’s Board of Directors Joanne Landau. “But what is truly noteworthy is what her students say about her: ‘This professor was the best!’ and ‘All she wants is the best for all of her students! She’s amazing!”
Professor Kamil Hamaoui
Dr. Kamil Hamaoui was recognized by the Westchester Community College Foundation for its annual Excellence in Teaching Award. Dr. Hamaoui has been teaching in the Social Science Department at WCC since 2013.

WCC Foundation
As the College has emerged from the pandemic, the Foundation has been awed by the resilience of its faculty, staff and administration under the leadership of Dr. Belinda Miles and the Board of Trustees. The Foundation has supported the College’s culture of caring by providing emergency assistance to students who were experiencing insecurity in employment, housing, transportation, and food.
The Foundation this year distributed over $2.2 million in scholarship awards and provided more than $2.4 million for College programs. Those programs included services for veterans, students from communities that are underrepresented in higher education, and new Americans; high-quality preschool education at our Virginia Marx Children’s Center; and environmental activities through our Native Plant Center. This work is wholly dependent on our many generous donors. We are grateful for support from key foundation and corporate partners, alumni, and other members of the Westchester community and beyond, all of whom are dedicated to helping our students thrive.
To everyone who stepped forward to be especially generous during these challenging times coinciding with the College’s 75th anniversary, our sincere thanks. We look forward to the year ahead, which is full of potential for even greater impact on our WCC community.
Sincerely,
Joanne Landau

Grants, Donors and Investments
PepsiCo Invests in Westchester Community College Students in Support of Equity Programs
Westchester Community College (WCC) has been selected as a partner by PepsiCo and its philanthropic arm, The PepsiCo Foundation, in a new scholarship and professional mentoring program that will address the issue of minority underrepresentation in high-demand fields. Westchester Community College is one of only a handful of community colleges in the nation to receive grants as part of this program in support of two scholarship programs specifically for Black and Hispanic students attending WCC.
A scholarship grant of $600,000 over two years supports the PepsiCo Foundation Uplift Scholarships. Eighty Black and Hispanic students were awarded up to $2,500 each to help cover the costs of tuition and other expenses related to obtaining degrees and/or professional certifications in Information Technology. Scholars also received additional support services from faculty coaches and navigators, as well as additional funds and other student support services to ensure success.
The PepsiCo Foundation S.M.I.L.E. Scholarship (Success Matters in Life & Education) will award two–year grants of up to $25,000 per year ($50,000 total) to ten Black and Hispanic WCC students in each of the next five years. To qualify, students must be transferring to complete their Bachelor’s degree in full–time undergraduate study at an accredited four-year college or university in the U.S. WCC is one of only three community colleges across the country to be selected as a partner by PepsiCo Foundation for this opportunity. Ten exceptional WCC student of color were named S.M.I.L.E. Scholarship recipients in April 2021 and have transferred to such schools as Columbia, Fordham, and Baruch.
WCC and Metallica Rock the Workforce in Advanced Manufacturing
For a second year, WCC Foundation received a grant to transform the future of students in the community from Metallica’s All Within My Hands (AWMH). The $50,000 grant is part of the initiative designed to directly support students while also elevating the importance of career and technical education. This work is highlighted at a global level by leveraging the influence of the rock band Metallica who continue to speak out on the dignity of professional trades and community colleges that prepare students. The current grant focuses on students pursuing careers in Advanced Manufacturing.
JPMorgan Chase supports publication of Definitive Financial Coaching Manual
A two-year $300,000 grant from JPMorgan Chase supported the development of WCC’s guidebook Building Financial Capability through Financial Coaching which was published in spring 2021. This Guide was created to be a resource for community college educators, staff, and administrators interested in implementing financial coaching to empower students to build money management skills and make healthy financial decisions. It details WCC’s Money Smart Forum program and offers strategies for integrating financial coaching into a variety of services that can be offered to students in a community college setting. It offers a step-by-step toolkit for implementing financial coaching services, along with recommendations, best practices, and resources that was shared with community colleges across the nation.
Special Events
After more than a year apart, Westchester Community College Foundation host its first in person event “Coming Together” event at the Captain Lawrence Brewing Company in Elmsford, NY on June 22, 2021. The event raised funds for WCC Foundation’s scholarship and student success programs.
Continuing with our virtual format that was so successful in keeping our community involved with WCC, we held a virtual event on November 8, 2021 featuring Chef Mogan Anthony. Chef Anthony is the Executive Chef and Culinary Director of the Village Social Restaurant Group. Chef Anthony’s locally sourced seasonal menus are featured at his restaurants, which include Village Social, (Rye and Mt. Kisco), Locali (Mt. Kisco), and Pubstreet and Fatt Root (Pleasantville).
Scholarships
The Foundation received two grants of $100,000 each to establish permanent scholarship endowment funds from members of the WCC family.
Annette Mulee, WCC Class of 1975, establishes Endowed Scholarship fund
Alumna Annette Mulee was not sure that college was for her – no one in her family had gone to college. But a few years after graduating from high school, she decided to try a few courses at WCC – She scheduled the courses around her full-time job and she got all “A’s”. Transferring to Cornell and graduating Phi Beta Kappa, earning an MBA from Columbia, and then a law degree in Portland Oregon, she has had a successful 40-year career as a lawyer. As a first-generation student herself, Annette appreciates the value of community college where students can “test the waters” and gain confidence. Annette received full scholarships and fellowships for much of her education which is why she wants to give to others the opportunity to improve their lives through education.
Lany Hirsch Lippman, co-founder of WCC’s Academic Support Center, assures student success
Professor Lany (Helene) Hirsch was an assistant professor at WCC from 1974 – 1987. She worked directly with Leonore Learner and Merilee Silverman to develop the Academic Support Center, one of the college’s most important resources. Lany has not been back to campus since retiring in 1987 when she moved to California. HIRSCH FAMILY ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS honors the legacy of Professor Lany Hirsch, who played a pivotal role in the establishment of WCC’s Academic Support Center. Awards recognize continuing Full time students who have overcome challenges and improved their academic standing by making use of the resources available through the Academic Support Center.
Native Plant Center
Resilience is often used to describe the environment’s adaptability. This year it also pertained to The Native Plant Center as it endured the upheaval of canceled programming, pivoted to a new reality, and kept busy moving forward.
Providing learning opportunities:
- Go Native U classes, run in cooperation with the college’s Division of Workforce Development and Community Education, moved to remote learning.
- For the second year the Center joined with statewide partners to create and present Do It for Wildlife, an educational webinar that attracted 560 attendees.
- The Center continued its community outreach, providing presentations and assistance to nonprofits and municipalities.
Expanding valuable habitat:
- Work on the new buffer garden in the Lady Bird Johnson Demonstration Garden resumed with the installation of 1,400 native plants and a grass pathway.
- An online native plant sale with contact-less pickup serviced more than 300 customers and moved 10,000 plants into the community. A record number of sales were also realized at the annual benefit for the Center at Rosedale Nurseries.
- The Native Plant Center was featured in Green NY Progress Report on Sustainable Practices, an annual publication published by New York State government agencies.
Inspiring tomorrow’s conservation leaders:
- The Center launched a study on pollinator-native plant preferences with Westchester Community College biology students, who learned scientific protocols while contributing information to a national database. Cybersecurity students mounted cameras so the plants could be monitored remotely.
- One of the students presented her research findings about pollinators to the 200 attendees at The Native Plant Center’s online landscape conference.
- The two-year-old Environmental Club, which The Native Plant Center advises, was named Club of the Year by the Student Government Association, and the club’s president and vice president were honored with leadership awards
Volunteer Office
Westchester Community College Volunteers Make a Difference. The thousands of hours of service they donate help our students make the most of their educational opportunities.
The Volunteer Office has remained an important part of the Foundation since the inception of the Volunteer Corps in 1992. Over 550 volunteers have dedicated more than 250,000 hours toward helping students and enhance our community on the main campus in Valhalla and being virtual this past year has not slowed down the programs’ momentum. Hundreds of volunteers from the community have virtually committed to assisting in student success this past year.
CONVERSATION PARTNERS
Literacy is the first step in developing skills that can ultimately lead to employment. This past year, volunteers taught themselves how to use various online platforms including Zoom, Google Duo, WhatsApp, and even Facebook Video to ensure that our students had every opportunity to succeed. Approximately 200 students in the English Language Institute improved their speaking abilities through one-on-one virtual meetings with their volunteer Conversation Partners.
ACADEMIC TUTORS
Academic support is key to helping students achieve their goals. The goal of the Academic Support Center is to help students become successful, confident, independent learners, and this remains true even while virtual. Volunteer online tutors have been essential in aiding in the college’s Academic Support Center, Writing Center, Science Tutorial, Math/Physics Tutorial, and Accounting Tutorial.
Even in a Pandemic, Westchester Community College volunteers continue to go above and beyond for our students, and the Volunteer Office is truly grateful to have such a dedicated group of volunteers who generously donate their time whenever they can.
Alumni
The Office of Alumni Engagement is committed to providing programs and events that support alumni of Westchester Community College. As the impact of the COVID Pandemic for the alumni was becoming more clear, the programming through the Office of Alumni Engagement explored new and varied ways to provide support for our alumni. As jobs were shifting to virtual/remote locations, we addressed opportunities to enhance online networking through LinkedIn and using social media to enhance your business. We focused on job loss and using online resources. The Financial Seminar Series provided tips for refocusing budgets and finances in challenging times as well as implications for tax filings as a result of government assistance and/or working from home. In partnership with Counseling Services there were sessions focused on how to cope with the emotional toll. These new programs enhanced our already existing social events which continued through the use of Zoom. New software development enhanced remote programs, enabling alumni outside of the tristate region to benefit from regular programming. Looking forward, remote events will continue to be a part of the regular schedule of alumni programming.
