    KCCC Goes to College, Part 2 | Community Forum

    KCCC continues its series from SENMC’s first day of classes. Part 2: two first-year students on choosing a major, juggling work and school, and finding their footing on a new campus. Libby, a first-year student weighing degrees in art, education, and a hands-on trade she grew up around, talks about easing into college life after a school career built on Carlsbad High School spirit, why she wants to get involved with the Carlsbad Arts Association, and what she’s learned working as a server while going to school full-time. Then Sergio Lopez, who’s set on a degree in elementary education after interning in early childhood classrooms and volunteering with Interact through Rotary in high school, talks about his six-class course load, being bilingual in English and Spanish, and why he thinks every student should get involved in a club or group on campus. Tune in for the full conversation. Aired on KCCC 930 AM Radio and available through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and through our website (www.kccc930am.com).
