Where Future’s Begin – the branding of Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C)

Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C )provides life changing opportunities for students to pursue their educational and career goals. Since the College opened in 1963, the result of vigorous public support, more than 800,000 people have come through its doors seeking accessible and affordable higher education. In return, Northeast Ohio has benefitted greatly as 85% of its graduates stay in the area. Now more than ever, the demand for an educated and trained workforce is critical to the viability and competitiveness of our region. Come hear Dr. Jerry Sue Thornton, the dynamic President of Tri-C for the last 17 years, discuss how the College has been positioned to meet the needs of students and the region for a long time to come, and to truly be the place "Where Future’s Begin."
