At Harford Community College we promote learning and development through class work and through student development services, programs, and activities.  Our caring faculty and staff support students in achieving their academic and career goals through quality instruction and student-centered services.  Our services, programs and activities are designed to support students’ development in a holistic manner:  intellectually, occupationally, socially, civically, emotionally, physically, spiritually, ethically, and culturally.  I encourage you to get involved in HCC programs and activities.  To get an overview of options, join us on Facebook at Harford Community College where you can link to Harford College Life, Harford Athletics, and theater activities; via the web glimpse the Online Orientation, or browse the Virtual Campus Tour.  If you are a new student please review the My First Semester tab on OwlNet and if you are a returning student remember to continue to use OwlNet to stay informed of current activities and important information.

If you need help with your classes, if you would like to meet new people, if you aspire to become a leader, if you expect to define your career goals and develop an educational plan – you’ve come to the right place!  Check out the list of student services offices and programs using the links on the left.  If you don’t find what you’re looking for, please contact me by email at DCruise@harford.edu.  By taking responsibility for your learning, challenging yourself, working hard, asking for assistance when you need it, and planning to succeed – wisdom and knowledge will be yours!

Sincerely yours,
