March 10, 2025

Greetings students!

Welcome back! I hope that you enjoyed your spring break and have come back recharged and ready to tackle the rest of the semester. The halls and classrooms in our campuses were too quiet while you were gone and we're glad you're back on campus.
 
As you head into the final stretch in these last weeks before the end of the semester, stay strong. If you need motivation, remember your dreams and why you are here. Your hard work will pay off in the future in more ways than you can imagine.
 
If you need help, don't be afraid to ask for it. That's what we're here for - to help you attain your goals. Ask your instructors for help when you are stuck or don't understand. Reach out to Student Development Services at 269.488.4040 if you need food or other life resources, mental health support or assistance with planning for the future.
 
I have observed that Kalamazoo Valley Community College students are among the most determined individuals in the nation. I'm impressed by how hard you work and am looking forward to celebrating your success when you cross the finish line.


Sincerely,
