Celebrating Black/African-American Student Achievement!

Congratulations to the Class of 2020! From the Black campus community, we are incredibly proud of each and every one of our exceptional Black students. Black Graduation was created for Black students, by Black students, through the Transfer Center's Transfer Bound program as a way to uplift and engage Black students in a culturally rich celebration of their accomplishments. We recognize our small but profoundly vibrant community of students across the PCC campus as they continue to aim high and serve as an inspiration to those who will be honored through each coming generation. 

In memory of the following: George Floyd, Tony McDade, Breonna Taylor, Sean Reed, Atatiana Jefferson, and countless other Black lives lost. 

 "...every soul is to be cherished. Every flower is to bloom." -Alice Walker
