6 The Borough of Manhattan Community College
A BRIEF PROFILE The Borough of Manhattan Community College, chartered in 1963, is the only comprehensive community college in Manhattan. Located in the heart of the commercial and cultural capital of the nation, the College is part of The City University of New York-an institution noted for its commitment to both open admissions and academic excellence.
BMCC views its primary mission as one of providing general and career education services relevant to the needs, interests, and aspirations of its stu dent body. The College prepares its students to enter the mainstream of the life of the City. It offers education to inculcate the skills needed for upward career mobility, and to promote the intellectual growth which is part of an individual's self-realization. The faculty are dedicated to these ends; beyond the classroom, counselors, librarians and tutors support their efforts.
The curriculum of the College reflects its mission. Each program of study, which may be completed in two years, leads to an Associate's degree Associate in Arts, Associate in Science or Associate in Applied Science. Ca reer programs in business and health prepare students for the employment market; cooperative education internships provide work experience over and above the students' formal training. The liberal arts program stresses prepa ration for transfer to a senior college, and also provides the general educa tion component of career curricula. Remedial and developmental courses are available for students needing improvement in the basic skills which underlie academic achievement. Courses are offered in both Fall and Spring semes ters, and in a Summer Session. A program in Continuing Education serves a wide range of persons-of all ages, backgrounds, previous education-across the Borough of Manhattan.
BMCC, which currently enrolls some 9,000 students, is preparing to move from its present quarters to a new campus in lower Manhattan. Comple- tion of construction on the new site, near Chambers Street and the West Side Highway, is expected in December, 1982.
Classes are held from 8:00 a.m. to 9:35 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday. A student may register for either day or evening classes.
PROGRAMS The College offers programs in business, health, and the liberal arts.
In the liberal arts, concentrations in addition to the Liberal Arts-Transfer program include Business Administration-Transfer, Dance, Fine Arts, Govern ment Administration, Music-Performing Arts, Physical Education, Recreation Leadership, Social Service, and Urban Studies.
7 Health concentrations are Community Mental Health Technology, Medical Records Technology, Nursing, and Respiratory Therapy Technology.
Business concentrations include these career programs: Accounting, Busi ness Management (with concentrations in Banking and Finance, Credit and Collections, Management, Marketing, Real Estate, Retailing, and Sales Management), Data Processing (with concentrations in Operations and Pro gramming), and Secretarial Science (with concentrations in Bilingual, Educa tion, Education Bilingual, Executive, and Legal).
As part of its education programs, the College offers Cooperative Educa tion internships to participating students in such business career courses as Accounting, Business Management, Data Processing, and Secretarial Science. In the health program, students participate in assignments in hospitals, clinics, and other health services offered in New York City. In Government Administration, students participate in government agency work.

58 Continuing Education and Community Service The theme for development of Continuing Education and Community Service at BMCC parallels closely the mission of the College as stated by the Middle States Self-Study Committee on Planning and Priorities: "The College acts as a community resource and cultural center, providing instructional resources, career information, specialized classes to meet specific requests, and continu ing education programs for career mobility and self enhancement."
In cooperation with community organizations in Manhattan and members of the faculty, the Office of Continuing Education has developed programs to train underemployed and unskilled persons for entry-level jobs. Using the same model of intra-College cooperation, this Office is able to successfully re spond to requests by businesses and health agencies for educational pro grams of benefit to employees and, thereby, to the businesses and health agencies. A continuing relationship with Senior Citizen centers in Manhattan has afforded the College the opportunity to administer the Institute of Study for Older Adults in 21 senior centers in Manhattan.
Through inquiries from interested, prospective students and proposals made by faculty and other persons with specific areas of expertise, the Office develops tuition courses. (These are so called because "tuition" supports the course.) These courses also reflect the mission of the College in that they may serve specific segments of communities, be geared toward the development of skills among students, have as their purpose personal enrichment, or satisfy any combination or permutation of these qualities.
The mission suggests flexibility. The Office must have the capacity to serve the specific groups to whom it is committed, using less traditional but equally effective instructional methods. It should be able to attract instruc tional staff in the College but it must have the flexibility to attract individuals exhibiting other areas of expertise unique to the needs of the community. The decision to offer or not offer a course must remain at once collegial and in keeping with the mission.
What follows are synopses of programs and courses the Office currently is running or offering:

Young Lecturer: Diana M. Liben The English Department prepares students who come to the College with a wide variety of levels of proficiency to reach an optimum level of perfor mance in writing and reading. It enables them to qualify for graduation and leads to successful performance in four-year colleges, including those in The City University. It also qualifies these students to assume positions in the pro fessional and business world as aware, educated, literate persons. Prior to enrollment in any English course at the College, each student is required to write a 50-minute essay. Students found to be below the minimum level for admission to the regular English course will enroll in an intensive re medial writing program. Those who pass the examination enroll in English 100. All students are required to enroll in English 100 and all take English 115. Many students enroll in English electives numbered 200 to 310, at least one of which is required for some students. Students are advised to determine their curriculum requirements before enrolling in an English course numbered 200 or higher. Transfer candidates are urged to contact their next college to see if a particular English elective here is required there.

Ofiaja, Rex Serrano Mattei The Center for Ethnic studies was created in Fall 1976 by combining the Afri can and African-American Studies and Puerto Rican and Latin-American Studies Programs. This new Center will become the nucleus of a multi-cultural program that will represent the diverse and rich ethnic backgrounds of the student body. The Center also came into being because of social, political and academic changes which have made the students and the entire college community aware of the need for a curriculum relevant to our students' situations, expe riences and academic needs.

Interdisciplinary Studies The Interdisciplinary Studies being developed at the College have, as their goal, an increase in humanistic knowledge by students. Such studies stress the interconnection and interaction of two or more aspects of culture and hence foster the preservation of ideas, events, and works of art themselves as in their real-life simultaneity. Individual interdisciplinary courses are taught by faculty representing two or more departments or disciplines. Interdisci plinary Studies were initiated in 1974-75. Such courses are electives, aimed to encompass the needs and interests of students in all of the College's academic areas, in both career and transfer programs.

Kasachkoff Associate Director: Mayer Rossabi Announcements about this project in this Catalog are subject to approval by CUNY and the New York State Education Department. The Labor Studies Project was inaugurated in 1978~79 with an HEA Title I grant from the New York State Education Department; the grant uses funds appropriated by the U.S. Congress under the Higher Education Act, Title I. The focus will be the higher education of union participants, who gener ally have been bypassed by academic programming at the entering (two-year) college level. At BMCC these studies will be made available within a wide student framework to such persons as union workers, disadvantaged persons, older persons, and minority-group persons. The aim is to involve more poten tial students in courses of special and specific interest to them. The project is being planned with the cooperation of labor union members and leaders, business leaders, and academic leaders. Description of courses offered is listed here.

Perlstein The Social Science program aims to broaden and deepen understanding of the complex social, economic, and political issues which face modern society. To achieve these aims, students are trained in the rational analysis of pertinent phases of human experiences. Courses offered in the Social Science Depart ment encompass the following areas of study: Anthropology, Economics, Gov ernment Administration, History, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, So cial Service, Sociology, and Urban Studies. The Social Science Department requires Liberal Arts students to fulfill their requirement for twelve (12) credits in the Social Sciences with courses from at least four (4) different Social Science disciplines. This includes all courses taken in the Ethnic Study Programs which fall within the Social Science areas of study. This requirement will expose students to a variety of disciplines and discourage premature specialization.

Before that, New York City's municipal colleges-City College (established 1847), and Hunter College (es tablished 1870)-had operated with individual boards of trustees under a mandate from the New York City Charter. In 1926, State legislation was enacted which merged the two boards, and members from other boroughs were added. The Board is the policy-making body and is legally responsible for all the institutions that comprise The City University of New York, including the eight community colleges. Its members, as of this Catalog's printing deadline, are: Harold M. Jacobs, B.S .. M.S., LL.D.; Chairperson Patricia Carry Stewart, B.A.; Vice Chairperson Loretta A. Conway, A.B .. J,D. Walter H.

The University dates from 1847, when the City's need for free higher education was first met by the establishment of The Free Academy now The City College-as the result of a public referendum. In 1961 the mu nicipal colleges operated by the then Board of Higher Education became The City University of New York through state legislation. The continuing growth of the University encompasses new facilities to serve the growing educational needs of students, new programs, and research geared to current urban needs. In July 1969, The City University Board ap proved "open admissions." Under this policy every student who graduates from a high school in the city, as well as holders of high school equivalency diplomas, may be admitted to either a two-year community college or a four year college of The City University of New York. The City University of New York has developed the largest university sponsored program in the nation to aid disadvantaged high school youth to en ter and stay in college through the College Discovery Program and the SEEK Program [Search for Education, Elevation, and Knowledge). Urban centers, of fering short-term vocational training and college-adapter courses, are oper ated by The City University under contract with the State University of New York and are named Educational Opportunity Centers. The University Doc toral Program offers the Ph.D. in 27 academic disciplines. The doctoral fac ulty is composed of scholars on the faculties of the senior colleges and those holding University appointments. Courses are given on the senior college cam puses and at the University Graduate School.
