Hare & Bell is an endeavor of Johnson County Community College focused on celebrating and awarding excellent academic student writing. Within our educational scheme, Hare & Bell amplifies academic competence of JCCC students.
Venues such as business, finance, research, health, mathematics, and politics explore issues and theoretical stances affecting our worldview and important discussions within professional discourse communities. This academic format highlights the educational goals of disciplines taught at this college and the knowledge students gain through our efforts as educators as we celebrate our students’ ability to produce exceptional work.
