“The coronavirus pandemic has created new challenges for everyone, but for many OCC students who were already stretched to the limit, they are now pushed to the breaking point with lost jobs, gaping technology holes, and kids and families to juggle.

We ask everyone to help our students stay #lazerstrong, finish the semester, and continue to pursue their educational goals,” OCC President Casey Crabill said.
