Vision Statement Tunxis Community College will be a vibrant educational and cultural center responsive to current as well as emerging student and community needs. Accreditation Statement Tunxis Community College is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Inc. (NEASC), through its Commission on Institutions of Higher Education. Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the New England Association indicates that it meets or exceeds criteria for the assessment of institutional quality periodically applied though a peer review process. An accredited college or university is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation. Accreditation by the New England Association is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of every course or program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to students who attend the institution. Inquiries regarding the accreditation status by the New England Association should be directed to the administrative staff of the institution. Individuals may also contact:.

  • Hispanic-Serving Institutions (Hsis): 2019-20
    Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs): 2019-20 The mission of Excelencia in Education is to accelerate Latino student success in higher education. A critical group of institutions enrolling and graduating Latino students are Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs). Summary of the 2019-20 HSI List In the 1980s, leaders recognized a small set of institutions enrolled a large percentage of Latino students but had low levels of resources to educate these students. The classification of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) formally recognized these institutions for capacity-building and other support. HSIs are defined as accredited, degree-granting public or private nonprofit institutions of higher education with 25% or more total undergraduate Hispanic full-time equivalent (FTE) student enrollment.1 In 2019-20, 569 institutions met the enrollment definition of HSIs. HSIs represent 18% of colleges/universities and enroll 67% of Latino undergraduates. The list of institutions identified as HSIs in this analysis is not intended to designate eligibility for any specific program; rather, the list is meant to assist in considering and analyzing the institutions that meet the basic legislative definition of a Hispanic-Serving Institution. The following list of HSIs was created using data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS).2 Location Sector State/Location # HSIs Sector # HSIs % HSIs California 175 Public, 2-year 235 41% Texas 100 Private not-for-profit, 4-year or above 169 30% Puerto Rico 64 Public, 4-year or above 150 26%

  • Scholarship Fund Honors Memory of Jean Lewis, Tunxis Professor of Dental Hygiene Lewis Was Resident of Newtown
    For Immediate Release Contact: Leigh E. Knopf, APR, Director of Marketing and Public Relations 4 September 2003 Tele.: 860.679.9552; Fax: 679.9677; e-mail: [email protected] SEE ATTACHED PHOTO Scholarship Fund Honors Memory of Jean Lewis, Tunxis professor of dental hygiene Lewis was resident of Newtown Contributions are now being accepted to the “D. Jean Lewis Memorial Scholarship Fund,” established by Tunxis Community College Foundation in honor of the College’s professor of dental hygiene, who passed away in August at age 71. “The fund was set up in esteem of Jean’s life and her many achievements at Tunxis Community College and in the community,” said Colleen Keyes, Tunxis dean of academic affairs. Contributions will fund student scholarships at the College. A graduate of Columbia University and Yale University, Lewis retired from the University of Bridgeport in 1985, joining the faculty of Tunxis Community College in 1987. Tunxis Community College conducts a community-based teaching program that enables students to work and study in dental clinics around the state, under supervision of faculty. These clinics are the first line of oral health care for thousands of uninsured patients. While at Tunxis, Lewis served in many community outreach programs providing dental hygiene to underprivileged children. Among the sites for these programs were Hartford Public Schools; New Britain Public Schools; Hospital for Special Care, New Britain; Connecticut Children's Medical Center, Pediatric AIDS Unit; Foster Care, New Britain and Bristol areas; Day Care Centers in Bristol, Terryville, Plymouth; Head Start Programs, Hartford and New Britain areas; and The Upper Room, New Britain.

  • Humphrey Tonkin Global Readiness
    PIER 2005 Summer Institutes Keynote Speaker Humphrey Tonkin Global Readiness Humphrey Tonkin, President Emeritus and University Professor of the Humanities at the University of Hartford, is an advocate and world leader in international cooperation and education. An acclaimed scholar, he co-authored, some twenty years ago, The World in the Curriculum, widely regarded as a standard guide to internationalizing the college curriculum. Most recently, he published Service-Learning Across Cultures, on the impact of international service-learning. Over the years he has chaired such bodies as the Council for International Exchange of Scholars and the Canadian Fulbright Commission. He continues to promote the internationalization of education as a board member of such organizations as the American Forum for Global Education, the International Partnership for Service-Learning and Leadership, and World Learning, the organization that operates the School for International Training. Biography: Dr. Humphrey Tonkin joined the University as President in January 1989 and served for almost ten years, stepping down in June 1998 to return to scholarship and research. During 1998-99 he was visiting fellow at the Whitney Humanities Center at Yale University. Before coming to Hartford he was for five years president of Potsdam College of the State University of New York. Before that, his career as scholar and teacher had brought him to the rank of full professor of English at the University of Pennsylvania. He also served that institution at various times as vice provost for undergraduate studies, master of Stouffer College House, coordinator of international programs, and director of freshman English. In 1980-81 he was also visiting professor of English and comparative literature at Columbia University.
