Happy New Year Patriots! To kick off the new year we were fortunate to meet with our new president Dr. Patrena Benton Elliot. Dr. Elliot serves as the first female president of Halifax Community College. She shared a wonderful message during our Spring 2023 Convocation and we wanted to make sure that this message was extended to you too. We hope that this message will encourage you to come see what HCC can do for you and your families and we believe she is the right person at the right time to take us in the right direction for those we serve in the Roanoke Valley and beyond.
