Columbus will hold a College Fair on April 2^nd, 2015. This fair will feature various local colleges and will be open to the public. It is intended to introduce both college and high school students to the many options they have for pursuing a four-year degree.

GMC Columbus Computer Science major Jasmine Hill expressed her approval of the fair with, “I think it’s good for students at GMC to have options and to be able to think about them. In a small town like Columbus, they might not be able to see all their options.”

The planner of the event, GMC Columbus Library Associate, Sarah Hulbert, shares, “At GMC, we want all our students to dream big and succeed. We want to give them all the tools they need to make the best choices for their lives, and the College Fair is one of those tools. When students are aware of all of the possibilities, it enables them to go further and do more.”

The College Fair will be from 9AM-12PM on April 2^nd, 2015, in the GMC Columbus Student Center. Local colleges will have set up booths and will be able to provide information for prospective students. This fair is open to the public – any student seeking more information about colleges providing four-year degrees may attend.
