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.

Thrilling

A legion of zombies invades the Havasu campus for a performance of the Thriller dance.Well, I survived Pumpkin Fest.
It was scary, but I guess you could say it was a "good kind of scary" - like falling out of an airplane.
I felt that same combination of helplessness, excitement and terror as hundreds of parents and little kids in costume streamed and then jammed into our student center last Friday night.
And in spite of the fact that we couldn't make popcorn fast enough to keep up with the demand, everyone seemed to have a good time.
Now it's on to the next thing in this event-mad time of year; from Halloween we go hurtling on to the Christmas season and our annual campus lighting event "MCC Shines."
In the meantime, don't we operate an educational institution here? Good question. In fact, Spring registration has started already and it's the perfect time to register. Don't procrastinate or you might find you're one of the "walking dead" on Jan. 25 with that English class you absolutely had to have is full.
