President's Message
In response to the coronavirus threat and in an abundance of caution to protect the health and safety of our students, faculty and staff while maintaining academic and business continuity, Kingsborough Community College and the University have implement a transition to Distance Learning.
On this page, you will find links to Distance Learning Resource for Students, Distance Learning Resources for Faculty, KCC and CUNY Updates, and the latest information on the coronavirus.
As always, the health and safety of the college community remains our top priority. These measures allow KCC and CUNY to continue serving its students, faculty and staff during this public health crisis.
Thank you,
Dr. Claudia V. Schrader
