The Pitkin Education Center

  The Winifred M. and George P. Pitkin Foundation donated  $1 million in the name of Drs. Winifred and George Pitkin, pioneers in the field of anesthesia, to expand the training of science and health care professionals attending Bergen Community College.  In recognition of this significant contribution, the largest gift in BCC history, the college’s main academic building was renamed the Pitkin Education Center. This “megastructure” houses the Science and Business wings as well as the Library, the College Center, the gymnasium and pool and the Administrative wing of the college campus.
