On January 30, 2008, the Governor and Executive Council unanimously approved changing the name of our college in Claremont and Keene to River Valley Community College. This new name signifies that we have truly become a comprehensive community college offering educational opportunities over a wide range of technical, career, professional and liberal arts programs. With this name change, we begin a transition where you will see our former name less and less and our new name more and more. This transition will be complete by July 1, 2008. We hope you share our excitement over this important development in the growth of the college!
