Academic Support Statewide to Help!

Tuesday, February 16, 2010 by Nicole MacMillan

One of the other hats I wear at the college is that of Academic Support person (ARIC is the acronym, Academic Resource and Information Coordinator)-- basically, I work with students to help them be successful in their classes.  We have a really talented staff of academic support folks across the college that are all very supportive and wonderfully patient.  One of our recent Academic Support Alums is doing something really neat that I thought I would share.  Matt Winkler, former ARIC, is taking his young school-aged son on a learning adventure to skate board around the United States learning in a hands-on way.  His project is a really amazing example of how everyone's education is an adventure and you will reach your destination somehow if you allow yourself to take a risk.  Go ahead and check out his website and see what state they are skating in now... www.50skatekid.com.

Good luck Matt, the college misses you and wished you well!
