Heartland Community College Lincoln launches “Hometown Hawks”

 

[June 16, 2021] 

This upcoming Fall semester, Heartland Community College Lincoln students will have an opportunity to enhance their college experience with some hometown flavor.

The newly formed program Hometown Hawks is designed to easily connect students to campus services, offer leadership opportunities, build a network of local friends and instructors, and offer regular trips to the Normal campus. Classes are scheduled in a way to make it convenient to complete general education requirements with tutoring, success coaching and counseling services offered on site.

“Heartland Community College Lincoln has so much to offer our local students,” said Heartland Community College Lincoln Director, Kristi Powell. “We want area students to know they can begin their Heartland education with fellow Logan County students at the Lincoln campus. Our Hometown Hawks will get extra support in multiple areas to help launch them toward their educational goals.”

An Information Night is set for Tuesday, June 22 from 5:30pm–7:00pm at HCC Lincoln. Attendees can take a tour of the Lincoln campus, get information about scholarships and financial aid to help pay for college, discover the programs of study available, learn about the enrollment process and get additional information about Hometown Hawks.

Refreshments will be served during an informal welcome session from 5:30pm-6:00pm, with a presentation about Heartland held from 6:00pm-7:00pm.
