A new link has been added to the Bakersfield College homepage.
The Renegade Culture Web site is a new link for students about college success, campus events and club and athletic information.
This Web site was created by a group based out of the Foundations of Excellence.
The Campus Culture CLIP, or Community of Learning Inquiry and Practice, made the Web site to encourage students to get involved with BC.
Natalie Bursztyn, Becki Whitson, Nancy Guidry, Clark Parsons, Rick Brantley and Janet Tarjan made up the Campus Culture CLIP team that created the website.
Bursztyn, professor of physical science, and Whitson, professor of psychology, came up with the idea of making a Web site after coming home from the Great Teachers Seminar two years ago.
After coming back to work, a CLIP had been created for this subject, and the two jumped right in and got involved.
“When I try to navigate the BC Web site, I have a hard time. As an educated person trying to navigate, I knew it was probably hard for someone who is trying to get educated. We want them to find out what BC has to offer,” said Bursztyn.
The hope for this Web site is to instigate a sense of pride in BC students.
Bursztyn wants students to get involved and care about their school.
“We want to generate a new generation of alumni,” Bursztyn said.

The CLIP team encourages everyone who visits to fill out the feedback form, which can be found through a link on the site’s homepage.
