A message from SLCC President Bioteau:

Dear Colleagues,

My wish for you this holiday break is that you will have time with family, friends, and for yourself as you take in the energies of this joyous, yet solemn season. We have much to be grateful for and I hope you recognize the many blessings unique to each of us with each day. As we close our college for the next week, I wanted to also share the magnificent news that our SLCC Chamber Singers will travel on January 17 to Washington DC to participate in the Inauguration Choir competition. Our college will be represented by forty students/faculty and staff will be going on the trip, competing, and attending the Inauguration on January 21. They will return to SLC on Jan. 22.

Looking ahead, the Division of Communication and Performing Arts will be hosting a farewell concert for them on the evening of Tuesday. Jan. 15 on the TR Campus in TB 203. Administrators, faculty, staff and students will be invited to attend to wish them farewell. The Division of Communication and Performing Arts via the Mass Communication Center will also be sending a faculty/student documentary video crew on the trip to shoot and then produce a documentary about the entire event.

I close this message with the following holiday greeting:http://www.slcc.edu/webmedia/holidays/index.html

Please know how very much I appreciate the dedicated work and excellence you have brought to our college over this Fall semester.

Happy Holidays,

President Bioteau

The Center for Prior Learning Receives an Honorable Mention

Today, SLCC's Credit for Prior Learning department received an Honorable Mention from the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL ) and the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education for its intentional approach and for expanding student options to receive credit for prior learning. Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) allows students to obtain college credit for knowledge and skills acquired outside of the traditional academic environment. This is exceptionally beneficial for adult learners, who, according to CAEL, have a 17% higher chance of graduating compared to those adults who don’t earn credits through prior learning programs. The CPL department at SLCC was created in 2020 and since then the volume of students served has grown as the department continues to expand. To be eligible for CPL, students must be working towards a degree, certificate, or apprenticeship. Director of Credit for Prior Learning at SLCC, Andrea Tipton, mentioned fee...
