The CNC and TNCC Articulation Task Forces have
negotiated and reached transfer agreements on a total of
25 degree programs. CNC President John E. Anderson
and TNCC President Thomas S. Kubala have finalized
the "2 + 2" Program agreements by signing them. Both
Kubala and Anderson praised the agreements because
they will increase the educational opportunities for
many students and enhance the cooperation between the
two colleges. TNCC students who earn an associate
degree in the appropriate program can now transfer to
CNC as juniors to the appropriate program.
