Our staff, faculty and admin- istrators are all dedicated to your success, even during these challenging times. As Laney’s President, I would like to invite you to register for classes at Laney.edu, if you have not already done so. Most of our schedule is online, with some lab classes in our science and Career and Technical Education programs scheduled to meet on campus as long as conditions allow us to offer them. How do we support you? If you need a computer, we have two programs that give students the technology they need to study away from campus. • Students can receive a computer to keep along with 12 months free internet access through the Keeping Students Connected program. To apply, visit our website at https://laney.edu/college-accreditation/ wp-content/uploads/sites/482/Standard_IVB/1- 08_LC_Stud_Equity_home.pdf. • You can also borrow a laptop through Laney’s Chromebook Loaner program for the whole semes- ter. You can check one out today at the following link: https://laney.edu/Online-Student-Services/ Laney-College-Chromebook-Lending-Program/. Do you need other assistance? DREAM. FLOURISH. SUCCEED. • Every Monday & Wednesday, the college is giving away free meals and boxes of produce from 12:00 – 2:00 p.m. or as long as food is available. • Financial Aid remains available.
