Vision and mission Statements GreenField Community ColleGe Vision: Strengthening our Community Lives change for the better every day at Greenfield Community College. Families grow stronger and so too our community. Our vision is to strengthen our community one student at a time. We understand our role and responsibilities, as a college in the global community, to create a better world for all.

mission: teaching and learning together Our mission is to teach, in a small, supportive and intimate learning environment, the knowledge and skills necessary for our students to reach their highest potential. Our doors are open to all who seek to learn. In striving to fulfill this mission we also seek to learn the knowledge and skills necessary to reach our highest potential as a college. At GCC, we are passionate about teaching and learning together!

GCC Foundation Vision The Greenfield Community College Foundation gathers and manages the resources required to ensure that Greenfield Community College is the nation’s finest small college; a conduit for regional, national, and international philanthropic investment; and an instrument for helping the College to achieve its vision for the future. Initiatives of particular interest to the Foundation include: • Access and opportunity for every student • Mutually beneficial strategic partnerships and collaborations • Programs to identify and support future leaders • Recognition of diversity and the evolving needs of our community

mission Our mission is to support the mission of Greenfield Community College — its students, faculty, staff, and alumni — by building relationships and raising funds throughout a service area that encompasses Franklin and Hampshire counties in western Massachusetts, the counties of southern Vermont and New Hampshire and beyond.

2014 annual report

message from… …the President of Greenﬁeld Community College:

…the President of the GCC Foundation Board of directors:

If Not For You “If not for you, babe I couldn't find the door” Bob Dylan If not for you Fewer students would attend GCC; More would have to drop out. Fewer students would have transportation and child care; More would go hungry. Fewer students would have the opportunity to advance; More would have dreams deferred. If not for you There would be no Cohn Family Dining Commons, Hammond Family Business Studio, Sandri Science Center, Yacubian Advising Center, Bete Family Veterans Center, Greenfield Savings Bank Math Studio, Sinauer Associates, Inc. Publishers or Channing L. Bete Company Study Rooms, Greenfield Cooperative Bank Presidents Conference Room or the Jean Simmons Nursing Faculty Endowed Chair. If not for you There would be no front lawn, no greenhouse or art on the walls. Our faculty and staff would have fewer opportunities to learn, grow and develop. Our nurses would not be as successful and the manufacturing program would remain an idea only on paper. There would not be a Downtown Center and the Senior Symposia would not have been born. If not for you The doors would be open to only the few; Academic excellence would be in short supply. If not for you No widening gyre of opportunity; Only the downward spiral of poverty.

This is my final report as Board President but my commitment to GCC will continue. I attended GCC, as did my children and grandchildren. An important resource within our community, GCC provides education, intellectual and cultural enrichment, and professional expertise. It is one of the area’s most significant economic engines. Like many of you, my life has been enriched by GCC. Imagine if there were no GCC. Thousands of students would have been unable to pursue the first two years of college. Future firefighters, police, nurses, office workers, teachers, artists, musicians and other professionals would have lost access to the education and training GCC provides. In addition, the college has attracted faculty and staff who have become valued members of the community, active in its creative, social, economic and political spheres. Without GCC this area might resemble the blighted and emptying towns one sees along Route 20 in upstate New York. But we have GCC and we all benefit from its programs and influence. We must work to ensure the College is in a strong position to continue its mission. Over the years the Commonwealth’s contribution to community colleges, once nearly a hundred percent, has decreased; it now provides less than half GCC’s total budget. Students’ costs have increased dramatically. Monies raised by the Foundation are essential to easing the burden of students’ costs. Your support helps make that possible. Thank you for your past and future contributions. Encourage friends, neighbors, associates in the workplace and casual acquaintances to the college that gives so much to the public life of our community.

If not for you Lives would not change for the better; Families would not then grow stronger; Our community would be in decline. If not for you

Diane H. Esser, Esq., President GCC Foundation Board of Directors

GCC would have only remained an American dream.

Greenfield Community College Engineering Sciences student Ernie Baird was the college’s 2014 “29 Who Shine” recipient at a statewide event to recognize outstanding public college graduates, honored for their academic achievements and record of student leadership and community service.

Greenfield Community College was nationally recognized by the White House’s Solar Progress Report: Advancing Toward a Clean Energy Future.

The GCC Distinguished Alumni Committee selected Mary Rice ‘91 as the 2014 award recipient.

Ernie worked as a Peer Tutor at GCC since Fall 2012 helping other students learn math, able to meet students wherever they are in their understanding of math and explain mathematical concepts at just the right level for them to move forward. In the late 1990s, Ernie started at Greenfield Community College right after finishing high school. It wasn’t the right time for him, however, and he did not continue with his education. He worked at a manufacturing business, but after marrying and having a son, realized he was living paycheck to paycheck with no way to move into a better paying job. He decided to try GCC again. Ernie graduated this spring with an Associate in Science degree with a concentration in Engineering Science. He transferred to UMass to study toward a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering. “I was 39 and very intimidated when I walked into my first class at GCC,” he tells us. “My instructor, Ian Winokur, was welcoming and made me feel like I belonged. I had never imagined being able to get a college degree. Now, I’m on my way to being a chemical engineer.”

“We are honored by President Obama’s recognition of GCC’s Renewable Energy/Energy Efficiency program. We have long known of the quality of that program,” said GCC President Robert Pura. “I am personally thrilled for and proud of the very fine educators who have developed and now sustain that program. Teresa Jones, Brain Adams, Peter Talmage, Mike Kocsmiersky, Christine Copeland, Peter Rosnick and Mary Ellen Fydenkevez, along with the many students involved are local heroes who now have been recognized for the day to day passion they bring to their students, their field of study, the college and the community we serve. Their work is helping to build a more socially and environmentally just planet.” The college was notified by the Office of Congressman James McGovern that the report would include a reference to Greenfield Community College. “This national report recognizes what we have all known locally for years: Greenfield Community College’s renewable energy curriculum is providing our community with a world class education focusing on the technology of the future,” said U.S. Representative James McGovern. “I am extremely proud that GCC was recognized as one of six community colleges nationwide for their efforts to train a skilled workforce that will support the growth of solar deployment.”

Since the 1980s, Mary Rice worked as a Behavioral Specialist with the Head Start programs in Massachusetts and California. The arc of Mary’s professional accomplishments reflect that of her educational attainment: she received her Associate’s in Liberal Arts from GCC in 1991, her Bachelor's in Developmental Psychology from Smith College in 1993 and her Master's in Social Science (Sociology/Psychology, Poverty and Legal Justice) from Harvard University in 1998. Mary’s work included grantwriting for early childhood programming for the NY Children's Services; helping develop and implement an Early Childhood System of Care (birth-5years) through the Santa Barbara (CA) County Department of Alcohol, Drugs and Mental Health; and as Program Director for a 16-bed therapeutic facility for adjudicated youth. Mary was a member of the Massachusetts Army National Guard in the late 1980's, and since 2010, has been a member of the Mass Medical Reserve Corps (MRC), a volunteer emergency response organization providing support to communities affected by disasters. She was recognized for her work with displaced young children during the 2011 tornado that struck Western Massachusetts. Mary has now returned to GCC as a student in the Associate Degree in Nursing Program, with an anticipated 2015 graduation.
