Dear Sussex Student:
Welcome to a new academic year at Sussex County Community College. I am delighted to witness the energy, enthusiasm, and potential each of you brings to our campus. Whether you are a returning student or new to our community, I want to share some exciting developments and opportunities that await you.
Our campus is home to a wide array of student clubs and organizations, catering to a diverse range of interests and passions. From academic societies and cultural groups to recreational clubs and service organizations, there is something for everyone. These groups provide a platform for you to explore new hobbies, develop leadership skills, and form lasting friendships.
We are proud to announce the introduction of women's wrestling to our athletics program. This new sport has achieved national prominence and will not only promote physical fitness but also foster teamwork, discipline, and resilience. We look forward to seeing our student-athletes thrive and represent the SCCC Skylanders with pride and determination.
We believe that experiences outside the classroom are just as important as academic achievements. Engaging in the arts, theater, and music can significantly enrich your college experience. Our vibrant arts program offers numerous opportunities to participate in performances, exhibitions, and productions. Whether you are an actor, musician, artist, or enthusiastic supporter, your involvement will contribute to the cultural vitality of our campus.
I encourage you to take full advantage of all the resources and opportunities available to you. Stay curious, stay engaged, and most importantly, stay connected with your peers and mentors. Your time here at SCCC is not just about earning a degree; it is about growing as an individual, finding your passions, and building a foundation for your future.
Let’s make this year memorable, productive, and successful. Welcome to the Sussex County Community College family!
Best Wishes,
Jon. H. Connolly, Ph.D.
Sussex County Community College President
