This is such a great story.

Sometimes you just need to stop and take a breath. Watch this video about two veterans who know the power of taking a breath, how they met in a #SaltLakeCC class, and how both give back to other vets. Thanks @KSLcom for the feature! #VeteransDay

[Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation @MillerFamilyFdn]

Foundation team members joined Salt Lake Community College to tour the future Gail Miller Business School and sign a beam alongside Gail and other family members. Her message says it best: “This is all for the students.” We can’t wait to see the space completed next year!

Kudos to one of Utah’s most important colleges @SaltLakeCC for reducing administrative overhead costs and choosing to reinvest those funds back in the classroom and trade/technical instruction. Students come first at SLCC.

Former SLCC professor @SenKarenKwan introduced the @slccbaseball team on the @utahsenate floor during a special session last week, citing the Bruins’ 19 comeback wins, one of which was the largest margin in JUCO World Series history. Congrats, #BruCru!

Way to go, Bruins!
