"My goal for GMC Community College is to continue to reach out to a wide range of students," Condon said. "We take great pride in our programs designed for students working on an Associate Degree to prepare for admission to a four-year college. At the same time, GMC Community College excels in meeting the needs of a wide range of non-traditional students."

The non-traditional student, Condon says, includes students working full or part time, individuals for whom college was delayed, individuals who wish to advance in their jobs or want to change careers and many other types of students who are serious about their academic careers and increasing their personal options.

"I recently received a call from a former student inviting me to her graduation from a four-year college," Condon said. "She's 50 years old and the first person in her family to graduate from college. She credits GMC Community College with giving her the foundation - and the confidence - to reach her educational and career goals. That's what it's all about."
