Community College Week Has Record Turnout
Dr. Norm Stephens, South Florida Community College president, Pete the Panther, and SFCC Student Government President Chelsea Landsberg kick off Community College Week during the opening ceremonies with the torch lighting. Community College Week is an annual event at SFCC, where teams of SFCC students and employees compete in activities and demonstrate their SFCC pride. A record 18 teams participated in this year’s Community College Week, held March 15-18, at the SFCC Highlands Campus.
