Special to The Advocate
State Senator Sal DiDomenico joined Charlestown residents, State Representative Dan Ryan, Secretary of Education Patrick Tutwiler and Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) President Pam Y. Eddinger at BHCC for the opening of the College’s new Student Success Center. This is the first new building to be constructed on the BHCC campus in more than a decade, and the new facility will provide a great space for students to further their education.
“I am a proud supporter of Bunker Hill Community College which provides essential educational offerings for students from across my district, many of whom are students of color and first-generation college students,” said Senator DiDomenico. “This development will improve the learning experience at BHCC and highlights the school’s continued commitment as a student-centered institution. I want to congratulate and thank my friend, President Eddinger and the entire BHCC community on this fantastic new addition to their campus.”
Bunker Hill is the largest community college in Massachusetts, enrolling approximately 16,000 students annually. BHCC has campuses in Charlestown, Chelsea and several other locations throughout Greater Boston. BHCC is one of the most diverse institutions of higher education in Massachusetts. Sixty-five percent of the students are people of color and more than half of BHCC’s students are women. The College also enrolls nearly 600 international students who come from 94 countries and speak more than 75 languages.
