Dear Members of the CT State Community,

I am excited to share that following an extensive and inclusive national search, we have appointed seven new campus presidents to lead our campuses into the next chapter of CT State’s growth and transformation. These accomplished leaders bring a wealth of experience in higher education, a deep commitment to student success and share in our passion for the mission of community colleges.

President John Maduko sat down for coffee with The College Tour’s Executive Producer and Host, Alex Boylan. The two touched on the benefits of dual enrollment, the affordability of an education at CT State, as well as the life-changing power of education.
