Montgomery College Crunch Time

It’s crunch time! Welcome to another Montgomery College Crunch Time for Germantown Campus.  It’s a quiet week concerning events on campus. On Monday, March 7, campus will be crowded with an expected 200 visitors for the groundbreaking of the new Germantown Bioscience Education Center.  Classes will not be disrupted due to the groundbreaking.

From 10 a.m. until 12 p.m. on Monday, the Bioscience Education Center groundbreaking event will have campus packed with people.  MC Germantown’s Director of Facilities Maurice McCambley urges students to consider carpooling, taking the Ride-On bus, or finding alternate parking to accommodate the expected 200 visitors..  Lot B on campus will be reserved for the Board of Trustees and other visiting dignitaries of the college, and the gravel lots will be closed. 

Keep in mind that MC students can use the Ride-On buses for free.  Just show the driver your semester-validated MC ID card and you can get to class.  It’s better for the environment, and the more students that take Ride-On bus on Monday means more available parking for the Bioscience Education Center groundbreaking event. 

If you’re a poet and already know it, MC Rockville campus is hosting MC Poetry Slam on April 28.  If you’d like to participate in the Poetry Slam, you must attend an informational meeting this week.  MC Poetry Slam informational meetings occur Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in TA 153 on Rockville campus from 1 until 1:50 p.m.  Contact coordinator Rachel Wilson for more information.

 That’s it for this week at MC Germantown.  Check back next week for more events and opportunities at Montgomery College Germantown campus.
