Back to school – I know that for me it’s bittersweet, as this will be my last first day ever! September 4th is the first day for students beginning programs, and second year students will begin classes on Wednesday September 5th.

ACC had its Explore ACC event over August 28th and 29th, an event as much about orientation as it was about fun. I hope that most of the first year students got a chance to go out and take advantage of this great opportunity, where the college provides a fun way to get to know where the most important parts of the college are, so you are not lost and completely overwhelmed. It is also a fun and easy way to meet some of the friendly faces you will see regularly in the staff and student association.

If you are interested in sports, ACC Varsity will be meeting on September 5th in the main campus gym for the following sports: female and male soccer, female and male volleyball, and female hockey. Watch for the next issue when there will be a full list of events that ACC and the community have to offer.
