Dear Bloomfield College Community,

With Hurricane Sandy and its devastating impact closing the Bloomfield College campus for six days, the institution's men's basketball team lent a helping hand during the storm's aftermath, helping to clean debris on the campus grounds to aid the school in reopening in time for classes Monday, November 5.  The defending CACC champions took to the streets of campus, helping to clean fallen trees and garbage that had been left in the wake of the storm that ripped through the Garden State early last week.

The Annual Korean Festival, held on Monday, October 22 on the Quad, brings food, games, dance, and exhibitions of Korean culture to the diverse Bloomfield College community.

Dear Students,

On Election Day, New Jersey voters will determine the future of higher education in the Garden State. The Building Our Future Bond Act will appear on the ballot as a referendum question – if passed, this Act will authorize $750 million in state bonds for academics facilities improvements at colleges and universities state-wide. These funds will enable Bloomfield College to maintain a top-notch learning environment for you and future generations of students.

National Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the cultural contributions of the Latino community to the larger fabric of Americana. This celebration began as a week by presidential decree in 1968 under the Johnson Administration and became a month of celebration in 1988. Nationally, Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated in September, but at Bloomfield College it kicks off a month later when the campus is full. The month of celebration is open to all of the campus community to experience the facets of the culture.

First year college students come to campus energized, excited, and sometimes a little anxious and overwhelmed. This may be their first experience living on their own and away from home as well as taking on classes that bear little resemblance to their previous high school courses. They are now expected to be responsible for themselves and live with complete strangers for months at a time.

Her Word as Witness: Women Writers of the African Diaspora by Laylah Amatullah Barrayn opens October 18, 2012 at 4:00 p.m. with a reception with the artist at 6:00 p.m. The event is free and all are welcome.
