LLCC’s Black Student Union is sponsoring a Jeans Day on Wednesday, Nov. 6 to raise funds for their scholarship. Each year a student will be awarded funds to help with tuition, fees and books.
Faculty and staff can wear jeans with a minimum donation of $5 to be paid in LLCC Student Life (lower level, Menard Hall). A sticker to wear on Jeans Day will be given to those who donate.
There is no substitute for human blood, and blood is medicine for those battling cancer. Around 25% of the blood supply goes to cancer patients, and without volunteer donors this would not be possible.
Please plan to join us on Tuesday, Nov. 12 between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. in A. Lincoln Commons to donate. Schedule an appointment online.
For donating, you will receive your choice of the following:
• A $10 gift card ($25 gift card for double red)
• Loyalty Store bonus points to redeem an ImpactLife beanie (or other items)
• A donation to support area food banks
Please contact studentlife@llcc.edu with any questions. Thank you!

The Early Alert workgroup is investigating how we can use an early alert system to improve student retention. LLCC’s current Early Alert system is used by some faculty members to report grades at specific times throughout the semester, but it does not have widespread use. Since every LLCC employee interacts with students in some capacity, we would like to hear your ideas on how we can support students through an early alert intervention. Please think about any conversations you’ve had or overheard with students where they have described a gap in service or a barrier they have experienced. We want to gather input from the LLCC community and encourage you to complete a brief survey by Nov. 1.

The LLCC Career Center will be hosting a Public Service Careers Expo on Nov. 7, from 9 a.m. to noon in A. Lincoln Commons. This is a fantastic opportunity for students to explore careers in the public sector, with representatives from 20 state agencies and several local and federal agencies in attendance. This is a casual, exploratory event where students can learn about job opportunities in public service, meet professionals from various government agencies and ask questions about potential career paths. While students are not expected to dress formally or bring a resume, they are welcome to do so if they wish.
We believe this event will be valuable for students, whether they are just starting to think about their career paths or are more certain of their future plans in public service. Please consider sharing this information with your students and encouraging them to attend.
