Use this link to see participating employers and remember to research them ahead of time, so you know what questions you want to ask and can talk intelligently with the recruiters.

Tutors are happy to help support you in the Lane Support Hub Zoom Room and on campus! Please visit our tutoring site to get the most up-to-date information. Here is what’s at the top of the list to know prior to meeting with a tutor:

We understand that seeking out tutoring can feel overwhelming or intimidating, which is why we want to let you know that tutoring sessions are simply casual, friendly conversations aimed towards supporting student needs. In other words, we want to help! Tutors are not experts in the disciplines they tutor; they are simply experienced in the overall discipline. Please bring with you, and be prepared to go over, any assignment descriptions provided by the instructor. These give the tutor context about the class, assignment, and instructor expectations, which helps us better guide you.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. To celebrate, the Mental Health and Wellness Center is offering the following workshops:

The Lane Community College Longhouse (Building 31) is a multi-use facility available to all students and provides program and classroom space for culturally appropriate activities. Please feel welcome to visit the Longhouse on Tuesdays and Thursdays 12-4 pm, and Wednesdays 2-4 pm. To learn more about the Longhouse, click here . 

Join us for a campus wide beautification event. We invite staff, faculty and students to come together as a community to plant vegetable starters, spread mulch, weed garden beds and plant flowers. The event will be held on Wednesday, May 17, 2023, 11 am-1 pm. No pre-registration is required, simply join us in Bristow Square at our volunteer table. You can volunteer for 30 minutes, your lunch hour, as a department team builder...you decide! We hope you take this fun opportunity to engage and connect with our Lane community.
