What an incredible day at @CNCC_Spartans. State Board members, including Trustee Allison, Representative Lukens, and Senator Roberts, met with students, faculty, and staff. The energy on campus was amazing. Their visit showed their commitment to making sure CNCC’s needs are heard and prioritized at the state capitol.
