Welcome 2014
and Light Up The New Year!
Welcome back to the Spring semester at SMCC. The Campus Center halls are filled with lots of people and energy as the new semester begins. In the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership (CeSIL), we have a location that's convenient with our fellow student support departments and our staff is ready to help you with answering questions about campus activities, providing directions, and supplying the ever-handy SMCC Compass Student Handbook.
Coming up this Thursday, January 16th, we are excited to be part of the official opening of:
The Captain's House.
The Captain's House.
The event is scheduled from 4:00 - 5:00 pm.
You'll have the opportunity to tour the Captain's House, enjoy hot chocolate and roast marshmallows, and count down to the lighting of the Peace Tower.
The Captain's House is also the home of The Captain's Cupboard, the new SMCC student food pantry. Volunteers will be on-hand to collect non-perishable food items.
We're looking forward to seeing you on Thursday!
