Scott Lefever and Samuel Pfeifer

Butler County Community College began its fall semester Monday. Freshman Scott Lefever of Slippery Rock, left, and Samuel Pfeifer of Butler, both English majors at the college, took advantage of the weather to study outside Monday morning. As of Aug. 20, 2021, enrollment at BC3 was 2,070, according to Bill Foley, coordinator of news and media content at the college. Enrollment at BC3 is down by about 10% compared to this time last year, Foley said. BC3 has three more “start dates” this fall. Students can enroll for classes that begin Sept. 20, Sept. 27 and Nov. 1.
