Tue, 24 April, 2018 at 2:48 pmStudent Senate Attends the American Student Association of Community Colleges National Conference
This spring, the Student Senate was able to advocate for California Community College students at the American Student Association of Community Colleges National Advocacy Conference in Washington, D.C. The group was fortunate to meet with Congresswomen Eshoo, Congresswoman Speier and Senator Feinstein’s Education Team to share their stories and struggles with housing, transportation and food and what the state can do to support Community College students. Students were also able to see the Supreme Court in action and Senate vote at the Capitol building.
Meeting policymakers, legislatures and advocates while seeing the national government in action was what all Student Senate delegates described as, “the experience of a lifetime!”
