The Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) is one of six two-year colleges within the City University of New York (CUNY) system and the only one in Manhattan. Founded in 1963, BMCC originally offered business-oriented and liberal arts degrees for those intending to enter the business world or transfer to a four-year college. Its original campus was scattered all over midtown Manhattan, utilizing office space wherever available. In the mid-1970s CUNY began scouting for suitable property on which to erect a new campus of its own. The current campus has been in use since 1983. Currently, with an enrollment of over 19,000 students, BMCC was. It grants associate's degrees in a wide variety of vocational, business, health, science, and continuing education fields.
Advertising itself to potential students under the motto, "Start Here. Go Anywhere," its student body is nearly two-thirds female and boasts a median age of 24 with attending students hailing from over 100 different countries, and a faculty of nearly 1,000 full-time and adjunct professors. Another 10,000 students are enrolled in BMCC's distance education programs.
There's something I've been keeping from you
I just needed time
I've been fighting with my feelings lately
And what's to find
Although I may seem distracted
There's no need to feel neglected
'Cause I've had only one thing on my mind
I've been wanting to tell you how I'm feeling
I've waited for this moment all my life
And I wondered if it's what you wanted to hear
But I've made up mind
I know I've taken my time
But I had to be sure
Now I know there's no doubt anymore
I love you endlessly
So now I've told you my intentions
It is of no surprise
Or are you feeling mixed emotions
I can't decide
Are we gonna stay together
For more than just a brief encounter
Are you gonna make my life complete
I've been wanting to tell you how I'm feeling
I've waited for this moment all my life
And I wondered if it's what you wanted to hear
But I've made up mind
I know I've taken my time
But I had to be sure
Now I know there's no doubt anymore
I love you endlessly
Are we gonna stay together
For more than just a brief encounter
Are you gonna make my life complete
I've been wanting to tell you how I'm feeling
I've waited for this moment all my life
And I wondered if it's what you wanted to hear
But I've made up mind
I know I've taken my time
But I had to be sure
Now I know there's no doubt anymore
I love you endlessly
