About the blogger

My photo
I'm in my second year as the College Recruitment Officer, and it's gratifying to see so many of the people I helped get started here in classes and moving toward brighter futures. I'm a true education advocate, having earned a bachelor's degree in English from the University of New Mexico and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of Utah. I've also worked in public relations and as a newspaper reporter and a librarian.

Happy Hour

Back from Winter Break and the rush is on to register for Spring. Here's a little tip for avoiding the craziness: visit us between 4 and 7 p.m. You'll find our Student Services department a lot mellower and empty chairs in the waiting area more plentiful--not that you'll be waiting long. We all know the old saying about the early bird getting the worm, but it doesn't apply in this case. It's our own version of "happy hour" -- alcohol-free, of course, and sorry no finger foods. (Be forewarned, we close at 5 on Fridays.)
