UACCM Foundation's Give Meaning campaign Received $5,000 from Morrilton Rotary

The University of Arkansas Community College at Morrilton Foundation’s “Give Meaning” campaign received $5,000 from the Morrilton Rotary Club.  This donation will be used to support the new Workforce Training Center at UACCM, as well as scholarships and academic programs.  The award was presented during the club’s noon meeting at the Morrilton Country Club.

The estimated 58,000-square-feet Workforce Training Center at UACCM will house many of the college’s existing technical programs including automotive service technology; welding; industrial mechanics and maintenance technology; and heating, air conditioning and refrigeration technology.  In addition to technical programs, an open space for workforce training will be included in the facility for use in recruiting new industry to the area, as well as assisting current industry with workforce development needs.

Congratulations to UACCM's September Student of the Month, Jasmine Novak! Jasmine is in her final semester of UACCM's Associate of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education degree. After graduation, Jasmine plans to continue her education at UACCM and pursue an Associate of Science in Education degree. Jasmine's goal is to transfer to a four-year university to get a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education.  Jasmine is a first-generation college student and UACCM was the best fit for her because of tuition, proximity, and campus resources.  Jasmine says her favorite things about UACCM are the student and faculty interactions.
