Each of you makes a special contribution to Community College of Philadelphia. We are an outstanding institution committed to creating a caring environment, which is intellectually and culturally dynamic, and dedicated to teaching and service. One of the great advantages of working at CCP is knowing that we are part of something larger than our individual tasks. We touch the lives of many in support of CCP’s mission. We serve as mentors, advisors, friends and colleagues to students, alumni, faculty members and staff. We model behaviors for our students to practice in their professional lives by embracing diversity in all of its dimensions, conducting business with integrity, believing in our mission and treating all with respect and understanding.
