ĢƵios Day is special because it spotlights the many ways Indiana’s community college is delivering for Hoosier communities. Every contribution allows us to continue to provide high-quality, industry-aligned education and training that helps our students achieve a better life and supports Indiana’s economic competitiveness.
– Dr. Sue Ellspermann, President, ĢƵios
