HCC Strategic Theme III: Harford Community College Embraces a Diverse Culture of Learning

"The more we know about each other, the more we learn about each other, the more we engage on differences that we have between our societies and between our social systems and between our political points of view, the better off we are. The more dialogue we have at every level, and especially at the academic level, where opinion-makers are located, the better off we are."

Colin Powell, March 18, 2004
