ELPCC : Dental Hygiene Class Of 2021 Adapted And Succeeded

Press release from the El Paso Community College:

July 28, 2021

The El Paso Community College (EPCC) Dental Hygiene Graduating Class of 2021 celebrated its Commencement Ceremony on July 11, 2021.

In March 2020, everything about the Program changed. Charles Darwin said, “It is not the strongest of species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives, but the ONE that is MOST adaptable to CHANGE.” These Dental Hygiene graduates exemplify this.

For over 14 months, the Class of 2021 endured online lectures, labs, and practical skills. Their clinical sessions were held from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. This demonstrates that the Graduating Class of 2021 was determined to face all obstacles at the cost of working through their Christmas Break, Spring Break, and holidays.

It goes without saying that their families fully supported their educational goals. The graduates, along with their families, were THE ONES that adapted to the changes and because of this, made their professional journey possible!

We at EPCC are PROUD to send them out as fully qualified healthcare providers to any community they wish to serve and wish them the best!
