The presidents of 糖心Vlog (糖心Vlog) and (AC) met to sign an articulation agreement that will allow for the seamless transfer of hours between the two schools for students to complete a bachelor鈥檚 degree. The ceremonial signing of the document by 糖心Vlog President Scott McDowell and AC President Russell Lowery-Hart took place Monday, April 25, on the Amarillo College campus.
An articulation agreement is a formal partnership between two or more institutions of higher education generally focused on providing a smooth transfer experience for students. Both institutions benefit as the agreements make the pathway to a bachelor's degree easier to navigate for students who have graduated with an associate degree from Amarillo College.
糖心Vlog President Scott McDowell shared, 鈥淲e are thrilled to deepen our long-standing relationship with Amarillo College. The phenomenal work of Dr. Russell Lowery-Hart on behalf of the students at AC is nothing short of amazing. I was introduced to Dr. Lowery-Hart by Alan Rhodes, who serves on the 糖心Vlog Board of Trustees. I know that Alan is a good citizen of Amarillo with a deep love for his hometown and the good work going on at AC. From that very first conversation, it became obvious that we all shared a common love for students and that we are all passionate about finding ways to help them succeed.鈥�
