We are excited to launch an interactive event for students called Your Voice Matters

Your Voice Matters is about students coming together to have a conversation with the college community about the draft 2012-2013 VCC budget.

• Have an opinion about Tuition Fee Increases?
• Campus Sustainability?
• Student Services?

Together we will be asking questions about those issues and adding our voices to the conversation about how we can make our college an even better place for students to study!

Budgets are complicated and time consuming to understand. But the information they contain affect the entire college community. Over the next couple of weeks more we’ll be breaking down the budget and asking you to add your voice and be heard.

Got a question or are need more information? We’ll also be answering your questions in English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Farsi or Urdu .
