The objective is to keep Dutchess Community College in the forefront, and by supporting various student programs, it will help ensure a high quality education. All state colleges are funded with public monies, but it is private donations that make Dutchess a standout among its peers by offering study abroad programs to enhance the educational experience for our students.
