Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) has appointed Charles Abasa–Nyarko, Ph.D. as the Vice President of Academic Affairs effective immediately. Abasa–Nyarko is a member of the President’s Cabinet and will serve as the Chief Academic Officer for the College, administering the development, management and evaluation of all academic programs as well as oversight of the Chelsea campus, the eCollege/Weekend College and the Library.
“We conducted an extensive national search to find Charles. Dr. Abasa–Nyarko who is a perfect fit for Bunker Hill Community College. He brings a balance of strong prior experience as Chief Academic Officer and a solid track record of accomplishments. We are very pleased to have him on board,” said Mary L.
