Former SLCC professor (and current state senator) Karen Kwan introduced the SLCC baseball team on the Utah Senate floor during a special session last week, citing their 19 comeback wins, one of which was the largest margin in JUCO World Series history. Congrats, #BruCru!

So proud of our cross country teams! This program is only three years old and has made huge strides in that time. It was an honor to join them on the hill.

This week, #SaltLakeCC’s Cross Country teams were honored on the floor of the Utah Senate, receiving deserved applause from the state legislature for their recent national championships. Way to go, Bruins! Thank you for representing us so well on the state and national stages. #slccbruins #bruinfam

#SaltLakeCC was honored to show off its School of Arts, Communication & Media to U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona, who met with students and took a turn operating a camera at the College’s virtual production stage—so far the first and only one in Utah’s higher education landscape.
