KUDOS to TRIO Talent Search at SWCC, especially Erica Frey, who wrote not 1, but 2 grants in light of the drastic last minute changes the Dept. of Education made to the Talent Search grant competition! Unfortunately, since the Talent Search grant cycle ends on Aug. 31st, there are many programs that lost funding and therefore many students who are losing services. We're VERY grateful for our SWCC TRIO Talent Search receiving funding!!
