Thank you from Bill Harmon
I would like to thank those members of the LLCC community who were there for me and my family after the passing of my mother, Jody Harmon. The hugs, cards, flowers, donations to the American Cancer Society, and presence at her funeral means a great deal to me. Your support has helped me get through a challenging time, especially at this busy time of year. I tell my students and members of the community that LLCC is a great place to work, and your caring further illustrates that. You are the best!

MYTH: ALL AUTISTIC PEOPLE ARE SAVANTS.
FACT: Like the character in Rain Man, many people think that all autistic people are capable of extreme feats of memorization and other amazing skills. While it’s true that some savants are autistic, not everyone with an autism spectrum disorder has these capabilities.

Winner of Walk A Mile Runway Show
The LLCC Sexual Assault and Violence Education (SAVE) Task Force would like to congratulate Scott Ebbing on winning the SAAM Day of Action Runway Show. Inspired by Walk a Mile In Her Shoes, an event taking place across the nation to bring awareness to sexual assault and gender-based violence, the Runway Show challenged LLCC faculty, staff, and students to strut their stuff across a red carpet runway in A. Lincoln Commons in women’s heels. Scott was chosen as the winner for walking the runway in heels multiple times with enthusiasm and style.
SAVE would like to thank everyone who participated, donated, or stopped by the SAAM Day of Action for helping support survivors, spread awareness, and incite change to prevent sexual assault. SAAM pledges will be available in Student Life and Student Success throughout the month of April.
SAVE encourages students, faculty, and staff to support the LLCC team at this year’s Springfield Walk a Mile in Her Shoes, hosted by Prairie Center Against Sexual Assault on Saturday, April 16th. Students, staff and faculty may donate or join the team at the team’s page (link to https://www.firstgiving.com/team/323102).
