Online education, like telecommuting to work, can boost productivity and allow for a more flexible schedule. However, it can be easy to become side-tracked or to struggle with feeling isolated. These 5 Rules for Working from Home from Real Simple can help you strike a good balance.

Students taking online courses may spend a lot of time on the computer. If you’re looking to buy a computer, evaluating your needs and taking the time to consider what features are most important to you can help you choose the best machine for you. This helpful guide is just one of many resources to help you along the way.

The College of Westchester (CW) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Vin Siegfried as Trustee to the College’s Board of Trustees.  The appointment carries a four year term.  Mr. Siegfried has also been a member of CW’s College Advisory Council since its inception over 15 years ago.

Chair Ann Conetta is very pleased to have Mr. Siegfried join the Board, stating, "Vin brings both business and entrepreneurial skills which the Board will find invaluable."

The College of Westchester welcomes our Day Winter students. During orientation day students were greeted by our Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, Dr. Warren Rosenberg. Students were given the opportunity to meet with faculty, hear from current students share their college life experiences at CW, and introduced to Moodle.

With education going increasingly digital, more students are relying on apps on their tablets like iPads to help them stay organized and get their work done. PC Mag recently listed the 100 best iPad apps for 2015. Lots of them are great for helping you stay on top of deadlines and be productive from practically anywhere!

Welcome back to returning students, faculty and Greetings to New Students of The College of Westchester

Hello everyone, and Happy New Year!  It is CW's 100th anniversary as a college this year, and it is a great year to celebrate!

Because so much of the interaction between instructors and students in online education is virtual, it’s possible they may never see what the other looks like.
