Strategies to stabilize enrollment

Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC) in New York hopes to stabilize its enrollment decline through the combined strategies of connecting with other institutions around the world and reaching into its own community to attract students interested in faith-based education. HVCC President, Roger Ramsammy, is leading the way toward a more adaptive approach with international partners that he says seeks to become "part of the infrastructure of the education systems" in countries where they are now reaching out. Instead of just setting up programs, HVCC strives to open dialogue with political leaders in other countries asking them what would be useful.
