College Night is Bigger Than Ever at Linn Benton Community College

College Night expands to consume whole campus in 2016 

College Night is the biggest recruiting event of the year for Linn-Benton Community College. In the past, College Night has been in the Commons Cafeteria. However, this year’s event has expanded.

According to Danny Aynes, the director of enrollment services, the event used to be “...very crowded, making it hard to hear.”

College Night is now no longer just held in the cafeteria, but on the whole campus. Not only will there be a showcase in the much nicer Russell-Tripp Performance Center, but there will be open access to many other parts of campus, including the library, bookstore, nursing labs, welding shops, and much more.

Claudia Davila, an organizer said, “This year is expected to be very successful because of the full campus involvement.”

Students will get hands on experience with the classroom and the teachers they will be seeing in the fall, and gain a better understanding of what to expect.

Trista Ochoa, another organizer said this will “...give the community an idea of what really goes on at LBCC.”

All prospective students are welcome, and you can register for the event at www.linnbenton.edu/college-night
