💚 Thankful Tuesday💚

This November, we’re taking every Tuesday to share a few of the things we’re especially thankful for at MVCC.

Today, we’re thankful for our donors. Your generosity helps provide scholarships, emergency assistance, resources and opportunities that make a real difference for MVCC students.

Thank you for believing in our students and investing in their future.

🚢 From MVCC to designing submarines!

Aaron Lusby ’15 returned to campus to visit Devin Sonne’s Intro to Engineering class and share his experience working for the U.S. Navy, where he designs submarines.

MVCC Celerating 80 years

🎓 A scholarship can be more than financial support it can open a door.

For an MVCC student, a scholarship can mean one less financial worry, more time to focus on classes, and the opportunity to keep moving toward their goals. Because of our generous donors, MVCC students are getting the support they need to keep learning, growing, and building their futures.

Thank you for investing in our students and helping make their MVCC journey possible. 💚

🦅 Hawks are everywhere!

For Alumni Day and to celebrate our 80th anniversary, we hit the road to highlight some of the many MVCC alumni making a difference throughout our community!

We stopped by Oneida County Government, Rome Health and Indium Corporation to celebrate the alumni who work at each organization. From healthcare and technology to public service, our alumni are using what they learned at MVCC to make an impact every day. 💚

We’re proud to see where our Hawks are today and even prouder to call them part of the MVCC family!🎓🦅
