Hudson Valley
Community College HVCC. "Hudson Valley Community College
serves approximately 12,000 students each semester, and employs more

second-largest institution of higher learning in the Capital Region
of New York State, Hudson Valley Community College offers more than
60 degree and certificate programs through its four schools:
Business; Engineering & Industrial Technologies; Health Sciences;
and Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Although 80 percent of Hudson Valley's students come from the
immediate Capital Region, the rest come from every county of New
York State and many other states and foreign countries. The college
ranks 60th (as of the 2002-03 academic year) nationally in the
number of associate degrees awarded annually, and has nearly 60,000
graduates.
Founded in 1953, the college is sponsored by Rensselaer County and
is part of the State University of New York system. The college is
governed by a 10-member Board of Trustees, which is appointed by the
Governor (4), the Rensselaer County Legislature (5), and elected
from among the student body (1).
The college is accredited by the Commission on Higher Education and
is a member of the Middle States Association of Colleges and
Schools. All of Hudson Valley's programs are registered and approved

Sciences and the Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology."

Maria
College. " In the 45 years since its founding by the
Sisters of Mercy, Maria College has become a respected educational
resource in the Capital District. While emphasizing traditional
classroom and laboratory instruction, it has also been a pioneer in
the design of unique degree programs and the development of flexible
scheduling options, so that even the non-traditional student - so
often excluded from the attainment of educational goals by age,
family responsibilities, or work schedules - has come to depend upon
the availability of a Maria education.
Perhaps even more reflective of the respect accorded Maria College,
however, is that the larger community has come to depend upon the
skills and services of its graduates, 80% of whom remain to work in
the Greater Capital District. It is said that if you've ever had a
parent in a nursing home, or been a patient in a hospital, or
enrolled a young child in a nursery school, or needed physical or
occupational therapy, or visited a doctor's or lawyer's office, then
chances are you have met a Maria graduate. High praise indeed! But
with praise comes responsibility. For Maria College, it is the
responsibility to continue its commitment to its teaching
mission...EDUCATION FOR SERVICE...in order that future needs of the
greater community can be anticipated and met as they arise."
