Valencia Osceola campus honored

    Great work by Valencia Community College and Osceola campus provost Dr. Silvia Zapico and the entire VCC team.
    The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) presented Valencia Community College’s Osceola Campus with its Outstanding HACU-Member Institution Award, in recognition of the college’s extraordinary efforts and success in advancing the mission and goals of HACU.
    The award was presented during HACU’s 23rd annual conference held at the Disney Coronado Springs Resort earlier this month.
    Dr. Zapico accepted the award on behalf of the college.
    Did you know that Valencia is a federally designated Hispanic-Serving Institution with Hispanic students making up more than 27 percent of enrollment collegewide and 46 percent of enrollment on the Osceola Campus alone. The college is third in the nation in the number of associate degrees earned by Hispanics.
