Richard,
FYI –
  • For next week, can you plug this event- April from Campus Life wants ALL staff and faculty to come celebrate, she asked for an email, but I think you can just plug the event: https://news.csn.edu/event/one-more-time/
  • Also plug the AFA newsroom story, that I wrote this week, but should go out next week.
In the newsroom waiting your review:
  1. Volleyball tourney
  2. Athletics awards
  3. DWED ACT spotlight
  4. Military Month

Newsroom 200x111 From Service to Scholarship: Military Community Keeps the Mission Going
May is Military Appreciation Month, and CSN has plenty to celebrate. Right now, more than 812 veterans are enrolled and using their VA education benefits at CSN. Add in 817 military dependents, and that's more than 1,600 service-connected students building their futures through higher education. Women make up nearly a quarter of that veteran population, with 199 female veterans currently enrolled, reflecting the growing and vital role women play across all branches. Those numbers tell a story, and so do the people behind them.
