Peek into The Lives of Former Students in the New “Then and Now” Photo-Story Exhibit

Throughout this year, a new traveling photo-story exhibit will be moving between Salt Lake Community College’s campuses to commemorate the College’s 75th anniversary.

 

The “Then and Now” exhibit invites viewers to step into the lives of former students, who remember what it was like when they first started at SLCC—some scared, some unsure, some excited—and to then learn where they are now in their careers. 

 

Each story includes nuggets of hard-earned advice that they would now give to their younger selves, and to current and prospective SLCC students. 


"We hope that students can perhaps see themselves in some of these stories and be inspired by them as they figure out what’s next,” says Peta Owens-Liston, who collected the stories and is the Assistant Director, Public Relations. “It also shows all the different ways SLCC alumni have gone on to contribute to our communities and others’ lives.” 

 

The exhibit stories are not limited to the twelve that are displayed. “Then and Now” stories can be found on this gallery page, which will evolve as new alum stories are added to it throughout 2023 and on. The Internal Marketing and Communications Department oversaw the design and production of the exhibit.

 

If you are an alum interested in participating and completed a degree or certificate at SLCC, reach out to peta.liston@slcc.edu.

SLCC Business School is Utah’s First to be Named Exclusively After a Woman

Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) proudly announces a partnership with the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation to modernize its Business Building and transform its School of Business. The improvements are made possible through a generous $10 million gift from the Miller Family Foundation and Gail Miller, the largest-ever single cash donation received by the college.  SLCC is renaming its Business Building the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Business Building in honor of the Miller family’s legacy and contributions to the community. The business school will be named the Gail Miller School of Business in recognition of the strong business acumen Gail Miller displays as a community leader and as the owner and immediate past chair of the Larry H. Miller Company. This name change will make SLCC home to the only business school in Utah and one of only a few in the country to be named exclusively after a woman.  “We are deeply humbled by the generosity of Gail and the Miller fam
