“Attending RCBC has allowed me to be a part of the EOF program which has helped me with affordable education in order to continue my education and achieve my degrees,” she shared. 

“We develop students from start to finish. Our goal is to build leadership skills, encourage social development and assist with decision-making regarding career paths as they get older,” said Omuso, who also serves as head coach of the men’s basketball team at RCBC. 

“Just being there (at RCBC) for a year, there have been so many positive encounters. I have a good relationship with all of my professors, and they’ve pushed me to persevere. They saw potential in me that I couldn’t see in myself,” Wells said.

“The simulation lab includes technology and experiences that are very close to what we would encounter in a real hospital,” Wilkinson shared. “We use simulated patient beds, electronic health records and mannequins that mimic patient vital signs and lung sounds to practice skills we would apply to real-life situations.”

“We try to make our program as practical and worldly as we can. It’s important that students see and understand what they’re getting involved in and what they’re working with in this field,” Rizzo shared. “They visit halfway houses, policing museums, correctional facilities and are able to meet officers as part of their practical experiences. That’s the benefit of what we do here.”

“We started these weekly town halls as a way to keep our community connected and address concerns they had about the college’s plans during the pandemic,” Cioce said. “These forums have been an effective way to share positive stories about how the RCBC community responds to unique times and I look forward to sharing more stories about how our community is leading change toward an inclusive and equitable society.”

“I’m grateful to have students who are open-minded and stay in touch. Nobody is getting left behind in this program. If someone is struggling, the whole group gets involved,” she said. “They pull each other along. It’s a unique opportunity to be part of such a tight-knit group.” 

“My proudest memory is when I ran a campaign to become the first Vice President of Student Concerns in the Student Government Association,” Hubbard shared. “This is when I started to understand the true influence of government, even at the collegiate level. Through this experience, my mother and girlfriend (now wife) were able to see me receive the highly selective New Jersey Martin Luther King Junior Commission Scholarship.”

“From day one, we were committed to growing our 3+1 offerings in ways that benefit students and meet the demands of our industry partners. We have received more calls to add business than any other major,” RCBC President Dr. Michael A. Cioce said. “We want to provide a seamless affordable path that allows students to earn the valuable credentials without leaving their community or amassing high levels of debt.”

“One of the things I always say is if you create enthusiasm in your program, students will want to tackle your projects. I’m here to guide my students, and once I guide them, they can take that information and run with it,” Warner said. “The ultimate goal of our program is to produce students who can function in the real world.”
