Great job to our Welding Department for stepping up to help the Hattiesburg Police Department serve the community! They designed, engineered, and built a grill for HPD…an opportunity for PRCC to serve those who sacrifice for us every day!

Officer David Matos says the project started with a simple phone call to PRCC welding instructor John Williams, and it turned into a hands-on learning opportunity for students.
