The start of a new year can be stressful. The optimism of New Year’s resolutions can quickly turn into frustration and disappointment if those goals are not achieved. Winter weather can bring on seasonal affective disorder, or SAD. And college students heading back to the classroom can feel the pressure of finishing the academic year strong. In fact, according to The National Alliance on Mental Illness, 80 percent of college students report feeling overwhelmed, and 45 percent report feeling hopeless.  

From March 30 - April 3, Waubonsee's Community Education Department will offer weeklong Spring Break Camps for children ages 4-14. Students can learn to build robots, to create video games, to track dinosaurs, how the body works and how to speak in sign language, among other possibilities.

Waubonsee Community College has appointed Dr. Laura Ortiz, of Naperville, to serve as the college's new Dean for Social Sciences, Education and World Languages.
