The university announced Wednesday it will work with students attending Hutchinson Community College, Dodge City Community College, Garden City Community College and Seward County Community College in Liberal.

The Hutchinson News reports the program, called "Finish with Friends," will offer degree completion programs in accounting, business management, computer information systems and human resource management at the four community colleges. Garden City Community College students can earn an undergraduate degree in accounting through the program.
