Garden City Community College (GCCC) is proud to invite the community to a special signing ceremony and announcement of an exciting new partnership with Kansas State University (K-State). This collaboration will expand access to bachelor’s degree programs in southwest Kansas, providing greater opportunities for residents to achieve higher education and advance their careers.
