The Behavioral Sciences department plans to continue offering quality freshman and sophomore courses in our disciplines.  We strive to foster curiosity and creativity in the best tradition of the Liberal Arts.  

For the current year, we are working towards compliance with the SUNY Seamless Transfer Initiative.  Also, we will begin implementing the first version of the new Assessment Plans we developed during AY 2014-2015.

We are also focused on strengthening the Human Services Program with the addition of a coordinator.
