BEAUFORT COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE | CONTRIBUTED
AIMING FOR SUCCESS: Men of Success, the minority male mentoring club at Beaufort County Community College, has organized for the 2014-2015 Academic Year under the guidance of Admissions Director Daniel Wilson. The goal of the club is to increase the success of minority males in the community college by addressing peer pressure and low self-esteem and helping and motivating students to graduate from BCCC and/or transfer to a university. Each student member of Men of Success is assigned a volunteer mentor and is expected to meet specific goals throughout the year. The group, which meets Tuesdays at noon, is planning activities that include visits to local high schools and a ceremony in February marking black history month.
