MATC students get a break from classes on Wednesday for MATC Day. That’s when all full-time faculty and staff will be gathering at the Baird Center.

They’ll hear a message from President Dr. Anthony Cruz and other college leaders as well as a keynote speaker discuss Students First: Reclaiming Our Why to Shape Student Success Together.

There are also breakout workshops on topics ranging from AI to mentoring.

This is the 10th year the college has held MATC Day.

About the Contributor

Zanaia Joshua, Editor-in-Chief

I joined the MATC Times in the 2023/24 academic year, due to my passion for journalism. I enjoy expressing myself through writing; I love a good synonym. It is exciting to bring stories to life with creativity. In my new role as Editor-in-Chief (2024/25), I get to experience the journey of creating a newspaper and all that entails. I help students share their stories through our website and print publication. We want to provide a voice for all students at MATC and the issues they care about.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, learning new things, studying quotes of wisdom, practicing fitness, dressing up, and having fun through new experiences.
