Coffeyville Community College gives students a boost as they approach the end of the spring semester.
On April 1st, CCC hosted a Over the Hump Midweek Bash, a hump day-themed event aimed at helping students stay on track, with a a unique twist. Live camels were brought to campus by Camels Unlimited, giving students the chance to literally get over the hump. In addition to the camel rides, the event connected students with key campus resources. Departments including Student Life, Financial Aid, the Business Office, Advising and Student Health Services were on hand to help with everything from tuition payments and graduation applications to academic check-ins and support services.
About 175 students participated throughout the day. CCC Vice President for Student Services Ryan McCune says the event offered students a chance to take a break, reconnect with campus services and refocus as the semester wraps up. College officials say events like this are designed to keep students engaged, supported and on track to finish the semester strong.
