Welcome Week Festivities

Welcome, Colts! We’re excited to have you with us and proud to be your partner on this journey towards your educational goals. Join for Welcome Week festivities today through Thursday from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. on the Upper Lawn in front of Building 9. Meet other students and staff from several college programs and services to learn about college resources and more!
 

Add a Class this Semester

Students have until Friday, August 28, to add a semester-length class to their schedule. If a class has already started, please get in touch with the instructor for an add code. To see available classes, check out Open Classes on WebSchedule.
 

Introducing the Pride Center!

The Office of Equity is excited to announce that the work of the Brave Space Collective is being rebranded as the Pride Center. This change reflects what students have shared: the need for a clear and familiar name for the LGBTQ+ support and community-building work happening on campus. Supported by dedicated staff and student leaders, the Pride Center will continue offering LGBTQ+ support events, LGBTQ+ trainings, gender-affirming clothing resources, connections to gender-affirming care, equity excursions, QTPOC speakers and more. Located in Building 17, Rooms 107 and 109, is space is shared with the Cultural Center to continue building intersectional work and build community across identities and experiences. To learn more about the hxstory of LGBTQ+ support, Explore our LGBTQ+ Support Timeline. And, come celebrate this hxstoric moment at the Pride Center Open House & Queer Social on August 26 at 10 a.m. in Building 17, Room 107.
 

Red Cards & Undocumented Community Resources

Wallet-sized “Red Cards” that explain how to safely assert your rights during interactions with immigration enforcement are available for pickup at the Undocumented Community Center. These cards are offered in multiple languages, including Spanish, English, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Chinese, Russian and Portuguese. These can also be printed. Visit the District’s Undocumented Community Resources  or stop by the Undocumented Community Center (Building 9, Room 118), open Monday – Thursday from 8 a.m.– 4:30 p.m.
