- When Danielle Harriott received an email announcing she had been selected as BCC's honoree for the Commonwealth's 29 Who Shine program, she was "shocked and surprised. It's not something I'm used to," she says. But for Amanda Davis, Adjunct Nursing Faculty who mentors Danielle and nominated her, it was an easy choice.
- Early Childhood Education
- Denise Foss is the 2020 Berkshire Community College Valedictorian, having earned a 3.99 GPA overall and a 4.0 GPA for her classes while she was a part of the Early Childhood Education (ECE) cohort at the College. She will give her remarks to her fellow 200+ graduates via a recorded video - as the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the regular operations of the College - and has moved the 60th Commencement ceremony into a virtual ceremony, supported by Pittsfield Community Television.
- Human Services
- Alicia Starsja, by all accounts, is a super star student. She started out at BCC in 2016 with a mindset that she wasn't really going to be able to succeed at college. Alicia is legally blind, having been born with Aniridia - which means the iris in the eye doesn't develop. However, Alicia was encouraged and empowered to give BCC a shot.
- Human Services
- Soncere "Starr" Williams is the 2019 Valedictorian for the 59th Commencement exercises at Berkshire Community College, graduating with a perfect 4.0 GPA with her associate's degree in Human Services and an Addiction Recovery Assistant certificate.
