RCC Gets $25K Donation Thanks to Grant from Rock Band Metallica

August 30, 2024 by Jeff Lewis

Students in the Rockland Community College CDL Class A Commercial Driver Training course will see their tuition rates drop thanks to a gift from a world-famous rock band’s charitable arm, “All Within My Hands Scholars Initiative.” The group recently made a $25,000 donation to help those students “Wherever They May Roam.” Yes, if you didn’t catch the subtle hint, the band is the heavy-metal group Metallica, and those 25-Gs are on top of $100,000 they gave the program in 2022. RCC’s Class A Truck Driver curriculum teaches students to inspect and operate tractor-trailers, with emphasis on vehicle inspections, defensive driving, and more. No word on whether Metallica simply liked that the college had the word “ROCK” in its name.
