At MVCC, we are fortunate to welcome students from the Mohawk Valley, around New York State, across the country, and all over the world. Every student has their own unique story to tell — here are some they have shared.
Featured Student: Miguel Riascos
"The neighborhood was changing faster than I could note, but so was I; my mother had
already died, and I needed to become independent, move out of the area, work, and
go to school. Being in the wrong place that night took a different meaning, which
haunts me until this day. ... My experience at MVCC has been one of the best as it
has allowed me to strengthen my writing, reading, speaking, and listening skills."
