Hello everyone! I hope all is well and everyone is safe and healthy. Also stay warm when you go out for a walk since the weather is getting chilly.

You probably have midterms coming soon or already take them. Either way, keep up with the good work and effort. Remember there is tutoring available if you need them.

Good News: next Monday, October 12th, the college will be closed and there are no classes Yaaaaaaay.

However, Wednesday, October 14th, will follow Monday schedule so if you have class on Monday remember to log in to class. If not, sleep all day (just kidding).

Here I have some information for you:
