¾º²ÊÍø

¾º²ÊÍø staff member Reggie Pierre-Charles has been at the College for more than 20 years. Born and raised outside the U.S., he immediately felt connected, comfortable, and part of the community when he began at ¾º²ÊÍø as he found many people looked like him and spoke his language.

He knows how important education is, especially, as he mentions, coming from a third-world country. He came to the U.S. after his mom passed away, and he promised her he would always do his best to do the right thing and honor her by not doing drugs, not getting into trouble, being kind to everyone, and leading by example.

He had the opportunity to start his education at ¾º²ÊÍø and was assisted and supported by a whole host of people at the College which made his transition easier. After completing his degree, he wanted to give back and assist new students just as he was helped when first starting out. He enjoys interacting with everyone at ¾º²ÊÍø, frequently running around campus, meeting with students, faculty, and staff.

He feels being connected is important and loves seeing students graduate and go on to do good things with their lives such as owning businesses or becoming doctors. He feels proud that he had something to do with their successes and is gratified that he was part of their journeys. He knows ¾º²ÊÍø will always be a part of them. Reggie says the entire ¾º²ÊÍø community of staff, faculty, and students, together, are a like a family and are there to support each other.
