Welcome back, DCCCD students! We get it – starting college (or even just a new semester) can be overwhelming. Maybe you still need to buy textbooks (hopefully not!), find your classrooms, meet your professors or any number of other things. It’s a lot to handle! Hopefully some of the information in this post will be helpful.
As part of the Healthy Communities Challenge, DCCCD is hosting a series of Affordable Care Act events to help you #GetCovered for 2016! Dallas is one of 20 cities participating in the challenge, with a goal from the White House to enroll the highest percentage of uninsured. The winning city will get bragging rights, a healthier community and a visit from President Obama to celebrate its success.

North Texans normally don’t experience the long, harsh and snowy winters that people in Minnesota or Maine enjoy. Coats and sweaters don’t even come out of storage until late October or even November.

In USA Today’s recent Jobs You Can Get with 2015’s Most In-Demand Degrees article, they listed the year’s most in-demand bachelor’s degrees. Guess what? Nine out of the top ten can be started at a college of DCCCD!
