Students and staff participated in the Autism Speaks Walk. For the last few months, the entire campus participated in activities to promote awareness and earn funds for the Autism Speaks organization. Student organizations such as HOSA, NSNA, and SGA conducted fundraising activities, including penny wars. The efforts were successful in raising $1,236.93.
Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions.

My instructors believed in me. They were more than instructors, they tried to get to know you as a person and tried to understand your goals so they could push you towards them. Student services helped me find a job before I even graduated. Everyone was dedicated to my overall success.
