Student Ambassadors

About the Ambassadors

BMCC Student Ambassadors represent various regions, programs, issues, and interests of the student body. They participate in recruitment events and college fairs, visit high schools, give campus tours, contact potential students, and represent BMCC to the community.

The Student Ambassadors’ primary function is to provide leadership, assistance, and information to prospective BMCC students. The program is an exciting opportunity that helps students develop their leadership skills, while making lifelong friends. As an Ambassador, you can make a difference in a prospective student’s outlook by sharing information about the transition into college life and how to make the most out of the college experience.

Timber the Timberwolf

Mascot-Ambassador

Fierce, fun, and a try-hard dancer, Timber bleeds the Navy and Gold colors of Blue Mountain Community College. Between studying, helping the Ambassador team, leading the cheer section at our home games, and making special-appearances at local events, there is no question about Timber’s school pride.

Every year, students have a desire to embody our school’s pride apply to be the next Timber.

In exchange for weekly service, Student Ambassadors and Mascot-Ambassadors receive scholarships and leadership training. Each spring, the college selects Ambassadors for the following academic year. For more information contact the BMCC Recruitment & Retention Office at 541-278-5921.
