"Starlight Cinema" Returns June 4

It’s time to dust off your lawn chairs and lay out your blankets to get ready for the first “Starlight Cinema” free outdoor movie night of the season! The season’s kick-off has been rescheduled due to recent inclement weather and will be held on the evening of Thursday, June 4 in the UACCM Plaza Courtyard. The community event is being sponsored by Farm Bureau Insurance of Morrilton and the college and will feature the 2008 Disney hit movie “Bolt”. The movie will begin at approximately 8:30 p.m., and admission is open and free to the community in addition to UACCM students, faculty, and staff.

“Bolt” tells the story of a dog convinced that his role as a super dog he plays in a TV series is reality. Bolt is obsessed with keeping his owner protected from the green-eyed man of the television show. This takes him to the point of no return when he believes that his owner has been kidnapped, leading to him being packaged and shipped to New York City where he meets an alley cat named Mittens and a Hamster named Rhino. The movie follows Bolt and his newfound friends through several action-packed adventures as he attempts to find his owner.

In the event of inclement weather, the movie will again be rescheduled to a later date. The next “Starlight Cinema” event is scheduled for Thursday, July 2. UACCM is currently soliciting area businesses interested in sponsoring movies for future “Starlight Cinema” events, as well as charitable or non-profit organizations interested in selling concessions during the events. For more information, visit www.uaccm.edu or contact Jacob Ward at (501) 977-2142 or at ward@uaccm.edu.

UACCM Chancellor's Update

To the incredible UACCM community and constituents, it is my honor and privilege to share the following University of Arkansas Community College at Morrilton campus report. Having recently completed the first five years as UACCM Chancellor, I felt a commitment to the campus community and constituents to share UACCM's progress that I hope you find relevant and meaningful. We commonly refer to UACCM as not only a Community College, but also the Community’s College. This has never been more true. There are so many exciting initiatives, projects, opportunities, and pride points from which we draw our energies. While we always strive to be present in our communities sharing our story and successes, I appreciate the opportunity to share this campus update with everyone as we reflect over the past five years at UACCM and prepare for the next five. Our mission is simple: UACCM is committed to excellence in learning and personal enrichment. As such, our vision too is simple. In 2019, my vis...
