It’s summer, which means increased road work in many areas of the country, and the heartland is no exception.  Each year as road construction increases, unfortunately, so do traffic accidents. Recently The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released estimates of crash fatalities in 2020 involving motor vehicle occupants, motorcyclists, and people walking and biking.

The job market holds increased opportunities as more and more individuals begin to look for post-Covid-19 employment. Local businesses are offering increased positions and competitive wages to bring employees back into the workforce. The increased demand as things are returning to normal includes a need for additional in-person education and training opportunities.

Shawnee Community College would like to commend all of our Spring 2021 semester honors students for their hard work and dedication. Full time students whose grade point average is 3.5 or better and who are enrolled in an Associate degree or certificate program are considered honor students. The President’s List consists of students achieving a 4.0 GPA for the semester.
