Area junior and senior high school students and their parents are invited to College Career Night at Moraine Valley Community College on Wednesday, Oct. 7, from 5:30 to 8 p.m., in the Health, Fitness & Recreation Center (Building H) gymnasium, on campus, 9000 W. College Pkwy., Palos Hills.
Families can visit with representatives from more than 100 national, public, private and proprietary colleges and universities and Moraine Valley career programs.
Students from the sponsoring high schools are invited to attend. Those schools are Andrew, Argo, Eisenhower, Evergreen Park, Oak Lawn, Reavis, Richards, St. Laurence, Sandburg, Shepard, and Stagg.
“College Night is a great opportunity for high school students to speak with representatives from a lot of schools as they start to plan for furthering their education,” said Andrew Sarata, director of Admissions and Recruitment at Moraine Valley. “We help students get exposed to a lot of different colleges and universities in one place and to help those higher education institutions meet with local students. It’s also a great opportunity to bring students and their parents to our campus so they can see the programs and services their community college has to offer. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.”
