In the first week of the Fall, 2010 semester and in the weeks leading up to it, the Student Affairs office has been busier than ever! The department administered 16 sessions of placement testing, hosted six more-than-full sessions of Orientation, and now the department is assigning lockers, parking passes and book vouchers. The last three items are being made available in the main hall at the college's front entrance.

"These are items students need to address right away, and we will have the information in the main hall during the first few days of the semester," says Nancy Mach, Dean of Student Affairs. "To provide these items and answers students need right up front is one way we are able to provide top-notch student service," Mach explains.

The Student Affairs staff affectionately calls the setup in the hall the "One-Stop Shop" or OSS. The OSS was set up Mon. Aug. 16, the week prior to the first week of classes, and in its first week served about 125 students.
