Hands-on learning looks a little different in Emergency Management at Lone Star College System. 🎓

Students in the BAS Emergency Management program are putting what they learn into practice through disaster gaming and simulations designed to build critical thinking, communication, teamwork and decision-making skills.

Through LSCS’ partnership with Simental Industries and EM Disaster Gaming, students can work through simulated real-world scenarios—from hurricanes to transportation incidents—and learn how emergency management professionals prepare, respond and adapt.

It’s an innovative way to turn classroom knowledge into career-ready experience.

💙 One act of care can create an impact that reaches far beyond one moment.

Lone Star College System recently celebrated the dedication of the Wadhwani Conference Room at LSC-CyFair’s Health Science Center, honoring more than 20 years of support from Ashok and the late Ishu Wadhwani.

After Ishu received exceptional care from an LSCS nursing graduate, the Wadhwani family was inspired to help prepare the next generation of nurses. Their latest gift supports nursing education at LSC-CyFair, including instructional equipment for the Human Anatomy Visualization Lab.

Their generosity builds on decades of supporting LSCS students through scholarships, career opportunities and the GIS program.

It’s a powerful reminder of what happens when education, compassion and community come together. ⭐
