Why ECC?
Essex County College was well represented at the Positive Community Magazine’s Great American Emancipation Awards program held on Saturday, February 24 at the Robert Treat Hotel in Newark.
The annual program this year observed the 161st anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January 1, 1863 by President Abraham Lincoln.
Attending the event from Essex County College were, from left, President Dr. Augustine A. Boakye, Chair of the Division of Social Sciences Dr. Mamie Bridgeforth, and Executive Dirctor for Institutional Advancement Alfred Bundy.
