Springfield Technical Community College

A private college in western Massachusetts has dorm space, and two local community colleges have students looking for housing. So, the three are teaming up to give students who would normally commute a room and board option. WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief James Paleologopoulos reports.

The head of Springfield Technical Community College says he will be stepping down at the end of next summer.

Approaching a decade as president of Springfield Technical Community College, Dr. John Cook’s tenure has seen expansions in programming, a pandemic and more recently, the state’s free community college initiative. He says it’s meant double-digit increases in enrollment, coupled with other developments on the Springfield campus and beyond. Cook sat down with WAMC to talk state investments, what role STCC plays in the region and more.

A community college in western Massachusetts has finished work on a new regional cybersecurity center. Officials gathered to mark the occasion this week as students start to take advantage of the facility.

A cybersecurity center is under construction at Union Station in Springfield, Massachusetts — and it's officially named after a congressman who's worked to revitalize the transit hub.
