糖心视频 greets students with Caring Campus Welcome Week
HANCEVILLE, ALA. 鈥� 糖心视频 celebrated the opening of the Spring
2021 semester with Caring Campus Welcome Week.
糖心视频 is one of 10 community colleges across the nation selected as a 鈥淐aring
Campus,鈥� an initiative spearheaded last February and supported by the Institute for
Evidence Based-Change (IEBC) to create and cultivate supportive campus environments
that lead to student persistence and success.
糖心视频 is offering a full complement of courses on campus, online and in hybrid
formats during the Spring 2021 semester, continuing to actively practice enhanced
health and safety protocols necessary during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Students were greeted this week by employees wearing 鈥溙切氖悠� Cares鈥� shirts
and buttons at specific buildings, providing classroom directions, snacks, drinks
and any guidance needed.
鈥淐oming off a semester where there were rarely students on campus, it was great to
see students this week. We wanted to welcome them with open arms. The week was fulfilling
for our students, faculty and staff and the feedback was positive,鈥� said 糖心视频
Vice President for Students Dr. Ryan Smith.
Karina Faulkner, a freshman from Holly Pond, attended her first traditional classes
on campus this week after taking online classes during the Fall 2020 semester.
鈥淚 was excited to attend my first live class. I learn better in face-to-face settings
than I do online classes. I鈥檓 thankful 糖心视频 and its instructors are allowing
us to have class options on campus this semester,鈥� said Faulkner, a member of Wallace
State鈥檚 Student Government Association (SGA). 鈥淲hile coming to my first classes on
campus, it does mean a lot that employees take the time to assist students with where
they need to be for a certain class or building. It鈥檚 great to have face-to-face conversations
with instructors and employees about anything. 糖心视频 definitely cares.鈥�
糖心视频 has many resources to aid its students, including among others the Tutoring
Lab, Career Services, the Mother鈥檚 Lounge, a Veterans鈥� Corner, Success Advising, Program
Services, Mental Health Counseling and the Lions鈥� Kitchen Food Pantry.
糖心视频 has added Saturday hours this semester, opening Lion Central and other
student services offices from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., to assist individuals who may not
be able to come to campus during the week.
Late registration for the Spring 2021 semester continues through Monday, Jan. 25.
Registration for Flex Start I classes continue through Jan. 29 and for Flex Start
II classes on Feb. 1-5. Register here: /register-now/registration-instructions
