Happening at MCC

This next week there are a few things waiting to happen on campus. First, from 9-2 on tuesday Phi Theta Kappa will be hosting a Smash-A-Thon, stop by and take 3 swings at a Chrysler LHS for a dollar. All the proceeds will go to the 5 students on campus that are attending National PTK Conference. The next day, from 12-5 is "put it where you want it t-shirts", so make sure you stop by and get the shirt you want for free! So take advantage of your opportunities and make the most of your college experience.

Resource

With four weeks left in the semester there are a few resources that are helpful to anyone on campus. First, there is the library with laptops, desktops, books, and so much more you are sure to find what you need. If you need help looking for something, researching or even citing a source just talk to the friendly staff. Also, if you need help in a certain area there are tutors available, at no cost to you. Just slip on down to the Student Success Center (lower level of the library) and ask for a tutor and the times they are available. There is one last resource you can use, and you don’t even have to move, the library resource center on the MPCC home page. So get a head start and use all your free resources, including your teachers!!

Back to the Grind!

Spring Break is up and now we are back to the books. Transition from a week of vacationing in the nice sun to hitting the books at full force can be somewhat of a hard transition to do. I am a pure proof of that, and I’m sure that a lot of you can agree with me that it’s a little tough getting back into the groove.
But we don’t have to wait long for another break! Wednesday is Inter-high day! Yes, that means we get another day off! With a high of 74 I’m sure we are all looking forward to it!

Final Week of March

On Monday the Vice President’s Leadership Class is going to have Dr. Brian Orbert, the Area Dean of Student Life, talk about his many years of leadership opportunities.

Wednesday is Inter-High day at MCC so remember all day classes are canceled because the classrooms will be used to give tests to the high school students. If you have a night class you still have to attend, it is not canceled. Thursday the 27th there is a PTK (the international honor society organization for community and junior colleges) meeting at 12:15.
