Fall Quarter!

After a nice long three week break, we returned to classes on September 24th. Fall sees a lot of changes brewing at CPTC. Our new Student Center celebrates its Grand Opening on October 23rd. The Bookstore, Expressions and the Floral Shop have already taken up occupancy. On October 11th the Okinawa Taiko Drummers performed for three different audiences in the lobby area, so already it's proving to be a key facility on our campus.

Closer to home, the Mechanical Engineering Design program enrolled 4 new students!

From the left are Dan, Kevin, Jason and Caitlin. All four graduated from high school in the spring and chose Clover Park Technical College as the next rung in their educational ladder. They have been excellent additions to the program. Each bring a unique and refreshing energy to the classroom and we are excited to have them. Welcome!!!

Stay tuned in the coming weeks as the M.E.D. program takes field trips to Pacific Reserach Labs on Vashon Island on October 26th and to Utility Vault in Auburn on November 30th. I'll try to post recaps of each visit soon after.
