Donate Blood on campus tomorrow

Impact Life logoEvery donation can help multiple patients in need, including those undergoing surgeries, battling cancer, or facing emergencies. In addition to supporting our local hospitals, ImpactLife has responded to requests for blood components to a southern California hospital. Blood collection in Los Angeles has been limited due to the ongoing fires impacting the region and help is needed to ensure efforts to contribute there while keeping local shelves stocked can continue.

ImpactLife will be in A. Lincoln Commons on Wednesday, Jan. 22, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Appointments are requested and you can sign up online.

Please email LLCC Student Life with any questions. Thank you for your support!

Spring 2025 peer tutoring schedule

Peer tutoring is a valuable resource for student success. Our peer tutors work with students who want extra support for a wide variety of LLCC courses. Students work with peer tutors to review course content, get help with homework, prepare for quizzes and tests or just to have an accountability partner. Whatever a student’s goals, working with a peer tutor is a great way to practice academic habits that lead to success.

Faculty, staff and students can access peer tutor availability via the Student Guide to Peer Tutors.

Faculty can share this information with students through their Canvas course shells with the above link or embed code.

Embed Code: <iframe width=”760px” height=”500px” src=”https://sway.cloud.microsoft/s/XYJFYsXwBNne6llW/embed” frameborder=”0″ marginheight=”0″ marginwidth=”0″ max-width=”100%” sandbox=”allow-forms allow-modals allow-orientation-lock allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts” scrolling=”no” style=”border: none; max-width: 100%; max-height: 100vh” allowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen></iframe>
