It\u2019s that time of year again! The Office of Sustainability is gearing up for Ditch the Dumpster<\/a>, CC\u2019s move-out donation program, and we need your help to get items sorted and back out into the community. Last year we kept over\u202f15,000 pounds of stuff out of the landfill. If you have the interest and capacity to help,\u202fplease sign up for a shift<\/a>. Your help makes a massive difference in our campus footprint. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Do you have a student advisee who needs to catch up on credits, could benefit from deeper reflection during their summer experience, or needs to earn credit for a summer internship? Encourage them to sign-up for the General Studies: Internship Adjunct<\/a>. The adjunct is an educational strategy that links classroom learning with the application of knowledge in an applied setting. Students should email Andrea Culp<\/a> in the Career Center to be added to the Canvas course to learn more about assignments and expectations. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
