Congratulations Dr. Jacqueline Galbiati

February 28, 2018

Board elevates Dr. Jacqueline Galbiati to VP of institutional advancement, research, and strategic initiatives.

 On Tuesday, February 6, the Camden County College Board of Trustees appointed Dr. Jacqueline Galbiati to the position of vice president of institutional advancement, research, and strategic initiatives.

Dr. Galbiati joined Camden County College as dean of the math, science, and health careers division in April 2017. Previously, she served as vice president for academic and student services at Cumberland County College in Vineland, NJ from 2009 to 2017. She received the New Jersey Council of Community College Spirit Award and NJ Congressional Recognition in 2016 for her successful work with community colleges.

“After a few months as dean, Dr. Galbiati proved to be an integral part of our Middle States Accreditation Steering Committee due to her leadership at Cumberland County College,” states Camden County College president, Don Borden. “When our Board of Trustees identified an interest in increasing the leadership capacity, it seemed natural to add a vice president position and appoint her. Together with Dr. Edwards [VP of Academic Affairs] we have a strong leadership team and a better organization.”

While at Cumberland County College, Dr. Galbiati led several local, regional, and statewide initiatives for the improvement of student success including establishing the Center for Academic Student Success focusing on student support initiatives to assist the college in retention and completion of at-risk students, leading the Achieving the Dream initiative and a five-year, two million dollar U.S. Department of Education Strengthening Institutions (Title III) grant, and decreasing the need for incoming students who require developmental education by 23%.

“Because of Jackie’s experience planning several strategic initiates, and her success in leading research-based programs, we decided to combine our division of institutional advancement with institutional research and strategic planning and put her at the helm,” states Borden.

Dr. Galbiati will lead the Middle States reaccreditation process and then produce the College’s 50th anniversary gala and commencement ceremonies.

“I look forward to collaborating with the College leadership in creating initiatives that will strengthen our position in the changing environment of higher education,” states Galbiati. “I am so fortunate to be working with a visionary President, leadership team, and county officials that support student success for our residents. The partnerships with the Board of Governors in constructing the new Health and Science building in Camden that is expected to open in 2019 is just one example of how county partnerships expand opportunities for students to meet their academic goals.”

Our Athletics Celebrates 50th Anniversary

February 28, 2018

Student athletes, hall of famers, and athletic administrators honored by CCC.

This year, Camden County College celebrates 50 years of serving the community and each department at the College is hosting a special event as part of “50 Events for 50 Years.” On Thursday, February 15, the Camden County College Athletics Program and kicked off the rebirth of the Camden County College Athletic Hall of Fame and honored all winter sports athletes.

Prior to tipoff of the CCC men’s basketball game, students from wrestling and both men’s and women’s basketball were honored with certificates. They were personally congratulated by the College president, their coaches, and the director of athletics.

At halftime, five high school seniors signed national letters of intent to attend Camden County College next year. Seniors Samantha Torres (Hammonton High School) and Emily Auletto (Sterling High School) will play softball next year for the Cougars. Seniors Dylan Kleiner (Seneca High School), Nicholas D’Agostino (Gloucester City High School), and Andrew Rodrigues (Chichester High School, PA) will play baseball for the Cougars starting this fall.

“All of our winter sport athletes were in the audience, and we honored our hall of famers, so it was nice to see incoming athletes interacting with current and former Cougars,” states Director of Athletics, William Banks.

Ten members of the Camden County College Athletics Hall of Fame helped unveil a banner listing all hall of fame inductees which will hang in the Papiano Gym. “This signifies the revival of our Athletics Hall of Fame which is one of our initiatives this year,” states Banks.

Additionally, Hudson County Freeholder, Jerry Walker, honored CCC Director of Athletics, William Banks, and CCC Director of Special Events and Facilities, Kay Byrd with proclamations for their work with the Team Walker AAU Basketball Team. Team Walker AAU is an organization that improves the quality of life for children of Jersey City by offering youth programs similar to those provided to Jerry and Jasper Walker when they were children. Camden County College is a proud host of Team Walker events each year.

Team Walker also donated $1500 to the Camden County College Foundation for athletic programs.
