Clermont College Welcome

Posted on by

One of my favorite times each new school year is the first hour of the first day. As I sit at the welcome table in the Peters-Jones building at Clermont College I’m eager to greet the new and returning students. The energy I feel from their excitement regenerates me for the possibilities of the new semester.  And of course I’m happy to direct them to the Clermont College Library.good things

I just know good things are going to happen fall semester. Best wishes to all of Clermont’s students as they begin this new journey.

Some of our newest additions on the 1st floor for Fall 2016 include:

  • New lounge-type chairs
  • New collaboration tables with built-in electric
  • A refreshed, relocated computer lab

Clermont College is hosting a special event and an online auction to raise money for our 21st Century Library Transformation, student scholarships, and a new fine arts classroom.  Be a part of the action and plan to attend and/or bid in the auction.  The event includes dinner by the bite, an open bar, live music, and a special address from President Ono.

On a personal note, I’m beyond thrilled to have our library among the year’s fundraising priorities for Clermont College.  Strong attendance at this event will have a huge impact on our ability to improve our library.  Even if you cannot attend, please help us spread the word.
