  • Report to Our Community • 2014 - 2015 South Seattle College and the South Seattle College Foundation Message from the President and Foundation Chair
    Report to Our Community • 2014 - 2015 South Seattle College and the South Seattle College Foundation Message from the President and Foundation Chair Dear Friends, During the past year we’ve seen students in our college transfer programs receive accolades on the national stage and earn significant awards closer to home, demonstrating that South Seattle College is a great choice for students who want to earn a transfer degree. For years, community college has been known as a great option for students seeking professional technical certificates, developmental classes, or continuing education. While that’s still true, it’s also the case that more and more students are realizing what community colleges have been saying for years: you can get an education that prepares you in every way to transfer to a four-year university and position yourself for future academic and career success. Emblematic of the type of academic achievement that is possible at a college like South is graduate David Yama. David is the top scholar in the nation, as recognized by the community college honor society, Phi Theta Kappa, and he is a recipient of the prestigious Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship. You will learn more about David inside this edition of the Report to Our Community. Many students say that their success started when they received their first scholarships from the South Seattle College Foundation. For many of the 319 students who received scholarships this past year, a scholarship represents more than just freedom from financial worry; it also signifies that someone believes that they can succeed. Sometimes that is all a student needs to inspire them to do more, try harder, and dare to reach for their dreams.
