Rebecca Mack Presents at Amherst College Transfer Student Collaborative Workshop


On May 14 Rebecca Mack of the Career Center was invited to participate in a Community College Collaborative Workshop at Amherst College in Massachusetts. Mack was a panel presenter, reflecting on the progress of the Jack Kent Cooke Community College Transfer Initiative.  Matt Brewster, an MCC transfer student, served on the transfer student panel. An Economics and Political Science double major, Matt elaborated on his successful transition to Amherst and outlined specific services and resources that assisted him.  

During the past four years of this program, Rebecca was instrumental in establishing relationships with college personnel and creating pathways for students (like Matt) who wanted to transfer to highly selective institutions.  Rebecca, along with other college representatives, held discussions regarding continued collaboration and strategies to increase our capacity to support transfer students’ transitions.
