Less than 48 hours remain until nearly 300 students graduate from Coffeyville Community College.

Dr. Ron Bryce, this semester's Commencement Speaker, says he will use local people to hopefully inspire the graduates.

Bryce says he hopes those examples help show the graduates that they can make a difference, whether staying local or moving elsewhere. He says he is proud to be this semester's CCC graduation speaker, calling CCC a backbone of the area.

 CCC's graduation is Saturday at 10:00am in the west gym of Nellis Hall. Those unable to attend the graduation ceremony in person can watch the graduation online. A link to watch the graduation can be found here.
