Luzerne County Community College President Tom Leary, Penn State Wilkes-Barre Chancellor Dale Jones, Penn State Worthington Scranton Chancellor Marwan Wafa and Penn State Lehigh Valley Chancellor Tina Richardson are introduced by Penn State Hazleton Chancellor Gary Lawler.
Chancellors from five campuses — Hazleton, Lehigh Valley, Schuylkill, Wilkes-Barre and Worthington Scranton — and the president of Luzerne County Community College met at Penn State Hazleton to sign an articulation agreement to facilitate the transfer of LCCC students into 11 baccalaureate degrees at the five Penn State campuses.
Students who earn an associate degree from Luzerne County Community College can directly transfer into bachelor’s programs at five eastern Penn State campuses, leaders of the institutions announced Feb. 27 at Penn State Hazleton.
Earlier this month, Rick Dierenfeldt traveled to New Orleans for an Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences annual meeting with three undergraduate students, who he said continually wowed other conference goers with the quality of their research and abilities as students.
