Welcome back Dean Dimmitt!

Libraries, tutoring, counselors, Oh my! MCC connects students with campus resources

Full classrooms, lively student centers and lots of activities – students are back on campus at MCC-Penn Valley, MCC-Longview, MCC-Maple Woods, MCC-Blue River and MCC-Business & Technology. Campus life and leadership coordinators on each campus planned a full Welcome Week line up to get students back in the swing for the fall semester.



At Maple Woods, Misty Chandler, interim campus life and leadership coordinator, along with the Collegiate Activities Board, hosted a week full of events for students. A student resource fair, where students were able to visit with programs and organizations on campus; Student Center Day, an introduction to what the ultimate student hangout has to offer; a Welcome Back! Cookout with free food and games; and a Monarch Madness rally to get students fired up about the upcoming soccer season were all attended by new and returning Maple Woods students. For more photos of Welcome Week excitement, visit the MCC-Maple Woods Current Students Facebook Page for more photos of events!

Candy, advice help MCC-Penn Valley students on first day of classes

The first day of classes can be exciting and hectic for students. And what if you have a quick question? Where do you turn? Who do you call on?

MCC-Penn Valley students didn't have to look far -welcome tables were stationed throughout the campus. Students and staff sat at the tables which were positioned in several high traffic areas across campus. Tables, which included candy and a welcome sign, were a relief to students who needed directions, quick answers and a voice of assurance.
