Students Here and There PUB 9202 from 9:30-10:30 a.m.

With 85% of SCC’s faculty being Caucasian, racial diversity in faculty is looking bleak. How do we address this issue? Why is it important? Come find out and participate as our faculty and others discuss this issue. Hosted and sponsored by the Student Diversity Coalition (SDC). Please read a recent Ebbtide article on the subject here.

PUB Karaoke! – PUB 9208 from 12:30 – 3 p.m.
