The Connecticut State Colleges & University s North-West region topped the list of the state s community colleges in the 2021 Niche Best Community Colleges rankings.
In the list of best Connecticut community colleges, Niche ranked Asnuntuck number 1, followed by Tunxis at number 2, and Northwestern CT in the third spot. The list is based on analysis
of academic, admissions, financial, and student life data from the U.S. Department of Education, U.S. Census and FBI, as well as reviews from students, alumni and parents. While Asnuntuck, Tunxis and Northwestern CT have long been recognized as wonderful places to learn, grow, and start on new academic and career paths, we re very proud of our staff and faculty for earning this statewide distinction, and for their efforts in helping our students succeed and reach their goals, said Dr. James Lombella, North-West regional president of the Connecticut Community Colleges.
To the Editor:
Liz Cheney, chair of the House Republican Conference, displayed tremendous courage in voting to impeach President Donald Trump. Despite obvious potential pitfalls, Ms. Cheney threw political expediency to the wind and cast what she has termed a âvote of conscience.â
More important, her statement preceding her vote was one of the most powerful any politician has ever delivered, paving the way for the most bipartisan vote to impeach a president in our nationâs history.
Thankfully, other House Republicans showed bravery by choosing â albeit by secret ballot â to keep Ms. Cheney in her leadership post.
