SSS assists with the annual Five-State Multicultural Conference. A Scholarship and Awards Banquet each spring honors program participants. In addition, other cultural and social events are held to foster awareness and appreciation of multiple cultures, promote a feeling of ownership in Garden City Community College, and for the overall enjoyment of SSS participants. To qualify for participation in the Student Support Services Program, a student with academic need must also be low income, first generation or a person with a disability. First Generation is defined as neither parent having a bachelor's degree.
Disability is documented through doctors, rehabilitation counselors or other professionals.
Any student desiring academic support is encouraged to apply for this program. Applications are available at the Student Support Services Office in the Saffell Library or by mail. The jobs are financed either through federally funded Work-Study programs or the college. The Center lists jobs that are available within the community. Students seeking employment can receive assistance in learning about available positions, interviewing skills, resume writing, and other job readiness skills.
