Metallica Scholars Initiative
Become a Metallica Scholar and earn your degree for FREE!
Clinton Community College (CCC) has been selected from a competitive field of community
colleges across the country to receive $100,000 to transform the future of students
in the community. Funded by Metallica’s All Within My Hands (AWMH) and led by the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC), the Metallica Scholars
Initiative is designed to directly support students while also elevating the importance
of career and technical education. This work is highlighted at a global level by leveraging
the influence of Metallica who continue to speak out on the dignity of professional
trades and community colleges that prepare students.
CCC has used the funding to help cover costs for students enrolled in the college’s Engineering Technology program. Ten full tuition and 40 $1,500 scholarships are available. CCC will highlight these Metallica Scholars, promoting this high-demand, skilled trade as a means to economic development.
“We are very excited to work with Metallica and the AACC to focus on career and technical training and the many opportunities for students in our community. The timing of this initiative could not be better,” said Dr. Brian Kelly, Clinton Community College President.
Students enrolled in the Clinton Community College Engineering Technology Program may qualify for full-tuition, fees, books, and equipment thanks to Metallica and their All Within My Hands Foundation.
