PARAMUS, N.J. – Call it a “healthy” start. More than 100 Bergen Community College students, faculty, staff and guests gathered this morning to witness the groundbreaking of the $26 million Health Professions Integrated Teaching Center at the school’s main campus.

All bond act projects must expand a school’s academic capacity and have a direct impact on student instruction.

PARAMUS, N.J. – Reading, writing … and raspberries? A transformation occurs every Wednesday in the Scoskie Hall parking lot at Bergen Community College, turning the asphalt car corral into the “Farm 2 Fork” market, a bustling bazaar of farmers, bakers and gourmet food purveyors offering a locally produced bounty of fruit, bread, sauce and cheese. At a recent visit, Jodi Nicola, of Hackensack, and Melinda Randolph, of Garfield, (pictured l. to r.) shopped the artisanal delights from Meredith’s Bread, an Ulster County, N.Y., bakery. The Farm 2 Fork market takes place in the Scoskie Hall parking lot every Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Bergen Community College’s main campus in Paramus, 400 Paramus Road.

The College will celebrate its 44^th commencement exercises, with Bergen President Dr. B. Kaye Walter as the keynote speaker.
