Tell us your favorite Midsummer memory in the comments, or cast your vote for which play Shakespeare Live should produce next. Three down, 36(ish) to go...

It's , so we're throwing it back to the OXFORD DEBATES with a look at the first two entries in our debate season. We heard roaring debates on uninhabited territories and on gun safety, but most importantly we heard YOU -- you, the first-year cohort who are diligently writing your final research papers. Congratulations on all your amazing hard work this year! And stay tuned for Debates 3 & 4...

We are excited to announce the winners of our "May the 4th" coloring contest... we have two R2-D2s that beep-boop-brrped all the way to the top.

First, for "Best In Show," ANDREW DEMIK gave us a very screen-accurate R2-D2 with all his accessories and utility tools.

Next, we have MAKAYLA MANN for "Most Creative" R2-D2. Check out those colors!

Thanks to all who entered, and may the Force be with you during finals week!

Students will be presenting their research papers on a wide variety of topics on May 4, 6, and 13, in Mueller 140 (the tiered classroom). All are welcome to attend!

Want even more comics-related fun?
After conferences on the 13th, come visit the CC Cinema in the same room, where we will be showing "Batman: Mask of the Phantasm"!

May the Fourth is almost upon us, so take a study break before finals and watch the original STAR WARS with CC! No Special Edition, no “Episode IV” — just the way it was 49 years ago.

🎶🎨 Throughout the day, we’ll have Star Wars study music in the Commons and an R2-D2 coloring contest. Win fun and fabulous prizes for coloring everyone’s favorite astromech droid. And may the Force be with you!

CC Scholars had a blast at in Richmond, Virginia! Whether they are headed to graduate school or just presenting some really good scholarship, our students represented well.

We are especially grateful to the alumni and friends whose support of the CC Dean’s Fund made this experience possible! Thanks to you, students could attend this conference without any expense to themselves. Thanks for all you do for Christ College!
