As spring days bring warmer weather to LCC, students take to shady lawns instead of the library, and some find it harder to focus on classes. Flowers bloom along the walkways, and students and faculty start making summer plans. Yet in the parking lots, in cars that can reach temperatures upwards of 120 degrees, some LCC visitors are having a much harder time.
The thunder and lightning storm that rocked Lane County the evening of June 2 left some areas of Main Campus in need of cleanup and repair. Members of Public Safety, Housekeeping, and Facilities Management and Planning worked through the storm Tuesday night in an attempt to alleviate the water damage.
It's nearing the end of Spring term, which means it's time to recognize the achievements of students in one of our countries most practiced ceremonies: graduation. LCC's graduation ceremony will be Saturday, June 13, at 4 p.m. at the Lane County Fairgrounds.
LCC and other community groups will soon be participating in the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life in an effort to raise funds and awareness in the fight against cancer. ACS's 25-year-old signature relay activity will be hosted by LCC on July 24-25.
