Each February, we celebrate Black History Month, recognizing and honoring the invaluable contributions of African Americans to the rich tapestry of American history. This observance also sheds light on the enduring struggles for Freedom, Equality, and Equity faced by the African American community. The impact of this history resonates in contemporary America, influencing discussions on race and confronting issues of racism. In this ongoing journey, Rochester Community and Technical College remains dedicated to fostering a secure and inclusive environment while providing pathways to academic success for all.
