Jan. 12 new & transfer student orientation a hit!

Columbia College-Evening Campus

Bookstore staff help new students purchase textbooks.

The Jan. 12 orientation event for new and transfer students was a great success! Interested students met in Atkins-Holman Student Commons to enjoy donuts and coffee before getting down to business and learning about all that Columbia College has to offer. In addition to learning about the Evening Campus and the variety of campus resources available to students, representatives from Financial Aid, Career Services and the Nursing program gave students the opportunity to ask questions. Columbia College bookstore and Student Affairs staff also extended a warm welcome by helping attendees purchase books, have their student IDs made and set up their CougarTrack accounts. The entire Columbia College family welcomes these new students and thanks all of the staff that helped with the event.
