Barton Community College officially swore in its new and re-elected Board of Trustees during Tuesday’s study session.

Trustees Kimberly Becker, Carl Helm, and John Moshier took the oath of office, joining Chair Mike Johnson and trustees Gary Burke and Dale Maneth.

Barton President Dr. Marcus Garstecki said the College is fortunate to have a board that is deeply committed to its students and the community.

“We appreciate the continued service of our returning trustees and look forward to working with those beginning a new term as we continue moving the college forward,” he said.

The board will elect its officers at its first regular meeting of the year, scheduled for Jan. 27.
