Sen. Boscola Learned the Value of Community College from her Mom
"I was raised in a household where my mother attended Northampton Community College (NCC) while raising us, so I saw at an early age the positive impact that community colleges had on families," said Sen. Lisa Boscola in a recent Q&A with the Commission. She said both NCC and Lehigh Carbon Community College do a tremendous job educating and training students.
