Assemblymen Phil Palmesano (R,C,I-Corning) and Chris Friend (R,C,I-Big Flats) were pleased to welcome local students from Corning Community College (CCC) to the Capitol last week. They met with the students to hear more about their priorities and experiences at the college.

“It was a privilege to meet with students from CCC and hear directly from them about how important the college is to helping them achieve their career goals. They told us about the impact CCC has made on their lives by unlocking new opportunities. We will continue to do everything we can to make higher education more accessible and affordable for students right here in our community,” said the legislators in a joint statement.
