Seminole State College students and faculty had a chance to learn about goods and services available in the community during the college’s 15th annual Area Services Fair held on Wednesday and Thursday. About 20 businesses participated in the event.
In conjunction with the event, the college’s annual Back-to-School Ice Cream Social was also held in Tanner Hall Building. SSC faculty and staff served free ice cream and students could build their own sundaes.
Around 2,200 students are enrolled at SSC this fall semester.
Some commute from nearby towns, some live on campus and some are local residents. Others move to Seminole specifically to attend school.
Lana Reynolds, SSC vice president for Institutional Advancement, said the event was designed to provide benefits to both the participating businesses and the students.
“Several years ago we were approached by businesses in the community about giving them an avenue to let students know about their services. The fair proved to be an excellent way to do this,” Reynolds said. “We usually draw over 20 exhibitors and it has turned into a great event for everyone involved.”
