to criticize SLCC for a lack of minority students. We are in Utah. Diversity is increasing but our demographics are still very different from many areas in the United States.
My wife works for a national company and was hiring for a good position last year. The national HR people complained that all the candidates she had chosen were white males. She pointed out to them that everyone who had applied was a white male.

Great news! I've previously taught classes for SLCC at multiple campuses. Great faculty and students! The student body may be lacking in racial diversity, but they are very diverse in other ways, as are most community colleges.

Incidentally, I noticed CTC is 9th on the list. Their main campus is very near my current home.

Good Job College of Eastern Utah! It is good to see that the Native American students have a place that values them. The community college mission is alive and well in Utah. Keep it up SLCC.

SLCC was a great place to start & was a great stepping stone. Congrats.
