It’s Spring! After what sometimes seemed like an eternal winter, Spring has sprung and we’re all looking forward to getting outside and enjoying all the warmth and colors the season has to give. This month’s cover celebrates exactly that, highlighting Scott Community College student Maggie Borota and her colorful self-portrait. She and three other EICC students were among a chosen few college students from our area, selected for inclusion in this year’s Figge Art Museum College Invitational. We’re also excited to share news of our new Criminal Justice program. Area police chiefs and county sheriffs tell us the program is especially needed and we can’t wait to welcome our first class of students this August. While on the subject of new, we’re equally excited about the expansion of our EICC Online programs. In addition to being able to earn your Associate in Arts entirely online, students now have online and Live Online career opportunities in at least a half dozen different fields.
