Students interested in Science, Engineering, Technology, Art and Mathematics can benefit from interactive workshops, documentaries, campus tours of labs, career presentations and speakers sharing about experiences and opportunities. Great for high school juniors and seniors, but open to all local residents. There will also be food, raffles and games. Events take place Feb. 3-7 at WCC.
The Student Success Conference is calling for volunteers to help welcome incoming students to WCC. Volunteers can help set up, check students in and answer questions on Jan. 29 from 9 to a.m. in ML 103. Those interested in volunteering should contact Apryl Scheffler-Martin by Jan. 21 to sign up.
Conquer the Cold is a mobile-friendly website that tracks and encourages sustainable commutes to and from campus, such as biking, walking, carpooling or taking the bus. Participate in the Conquer the Cold challenge, which runs throughout the month of January, for a chance to win prizes, compete and be kind to the environment.
Students who are also aspiring entrepreneurs can pitch their business ideas for a chance to win cash prizes that can be used to start, build or grow their business. The application deadline is Jan. 31, and Pitch@WCC will take place on May 12.
WCC is just one of three campuses in Michigan to be granted the Bee Campus USA designation because of its hard work improving areas for pollinators, especially bees. WCC provides gardens, many bee-friendly plants, non-toxic fertilization, and educational events about flowers and local pollinators.
