MAIN CALENDAR
October Events:
The presentation, held in the Auditorium (A-116) Thursday, Oct. 15 from 12:30-1:30 p.m., will be a lunch and learn event with an encore presentation that evening at 6:30 p.m. for community members. The presentor, Staff Sergeant Anthony Farina, has done two tours of duty in Iraq and is writing a book about his experiences.
Auctioneer and BHC alum Bill Le Sage and the livestock judging team will facilitate the auction. Pumpkins will be donated by Theresa’s Tasty Produce, Miller's and Patty Varner. The 2008 Stampede raised more than $2,600 for the Kewanee Area United Way Campaign. The auction is open to the public.
Children in sixth grade or younger are once again invited to a special, safe, trick-or-treat evening at Black Hawk College - East Campus south of Kewanee from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 28. Employees at BHC will dress in costumes, decorate the college hallways, and hand out treats. Costumes are optional for the children. Last year, approximately 900 children attended the event. Kids and their parents should check in at the front entrance of the main building at East Campus. Directions will be given to the kids for their trick-or-treat evening.
Learn financial aid and scholarship writing TRICKS at workshops presented throughout the night. Co-sponsored by the Star Courier
Students can get FREE help filling out their online 2009-2010 FAFSA applications at FAFSA Friday at the Quad-Cities Campus. FAFSA Friday is the first Friday of the month. Computers also are available from 9-11 a.m. or 2:30-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday at the Quad-Cities Campus Financial Aid Office.
800 BHC students will not receive $400,000 in financial aid if the state legislature does not restore MAP grant funding by Jan. 1. The issue will be addressed Oct. 14-16 and Oct. 28-30 during the Illinois General Assembly's fall veto session. The Monetary Award Program (MAP) provides grants to Illinois residents who attend approved Illinois colleges and demonstrate financial need. MAP grants can be applied toward tuition and fees. Questions? Contact Holly Smith in the Public Relations Office or visit www.SaveIllinoisMAPGrants.org.
Come find out about BHC clubs/organizations and departments! Community organizations and businesses also will be attending to share important information.
The Career Technology Open House will highlight programs such as engineering, computer information processing, computer operation and equipment repair (COER), warehousing and distribution, and law enforcement. This is a great opportunity to meet the program instructors at Black Hawk College and visit the college’s hands-on technology labs.
