ODESS Programs

The Vector Network Program assists first-generation students and students from historically underrepresented groups in making a successful academic and social transition to life at Tompkins Cortland Community College.

The Diversity and Equity Council's purpose is to ensure that the college’s value of diversity is held as a reference point in all our work.

The Office of Diversity Education and Support Services (ODESS) envisions a positive and inclusive campus community where underrepresented student groups achieve equity in every respect and have full access to academic success and personal development.
