YSU/BC3 deal will continue at new venue

YOUNGSTOWN — An agreement between Youngstown State University and Butler County Community College allows students to transfer credits earned at BC3 to YSU if they choose to continue their education here.

Talk of the arrangement came up at the opening of a new BC3 campus at Lawrence Crossing, just east of Poland Township in Lawrence County, Pa., Tuesday, but it’s not a new agreement, said Dr. Jane Kestner, associate dean of YSU’s College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences. It was penned when BC3 opened a campus in Hermitage, Mercer County, several years ago, she said.
