Dear Faculty and Staff:

Welcome back – I hope you all enjoyed a safe, relaxing and rejuvenates Spring Break!

You’re invited to the SCC Be Transformed Gala & Auction at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 10, and it’s completely virtual. You may watch the event on-screen and bid online. Party boxes and dinners-to-go are available for purchase, in lieu of in-person tickets to Ameristar. Our students appreciate your support – especially now. Please consider hosting a watch party for your own family and friends. There is transformational power in education. All proceeds support scholarships and academic enhancements through the St. Charles Community College Foundation. With your support, our neighbors, colleagues, family and friends will receive the education needed to transfer to universities or move on to rewarding careers teaching our children, caring for our sick and elderly, enforcing our laws, operating and advancing our technology, providing financial and business services, and so much more. Please join us online and “Be Transformed” by helping our students

Gain a greater understanding of the LGBTQ+ community by taking part in SCC’s Safe Zone Workshop, held from 1-3 p.m. Thursday via Zoom and led by certified SCC faculty facilitators, Professors Mitch Hardin and Bryonie Carter. You will learn how to help build a campus community inclusive of gender and sexual diversity. To get the registration link, email mkampen@stchas.edu or mharden@stchas.edu.
