Returning Borrowed Items

The end of the semester is near and if you have borrowed any technology, materials or equipment from the college and are not enrolled for the spring semester, please check your preferred email and eServices Message Center for information regarding returns. If you are enrolled for spring semester and plan to use your borrowed technology for your upcoming classes, you will be able to hold on to the item(s) through the next semester. Materials borrowed from the Library this semester should be returned.

Questions about technology returns can be sent to scc-pantherhelp@scc.losrios.edu.

If you borrowed textbooks from the bookstore, keep an eye out for an email from the bookstore with more information on when and how to make your returns. For questions, contact the bookstore.

Congrats to Mid-Year Grads!

This is a special shout out to all of our Panthers graduating at the end of this Fall 2020 semester! During a time like no other, you have achieved an important milestone in your life. Know that the Panther community, your family, and friends are all incredibly proud of you.

As you get ready to start the next chapter in your story, we hope you pause to reflect on your time at Sacramento City College and celebrate your success.

We hope you make time to commemorate your journey and this moment for yourself and everyone who has cheered you on along the way.

Calstrs Features Former Sac City Student, Now FLC Professor

Calstrs published a great writeup on former Sac City student Josh Fernandez, who is now an English faculty member at FLC.

In the article, Fernandez says enrolling at SCC helped him find his way. “The professors at Sacramento City College were some of the kindest, most supportive people," he says. "I saw right away, that’s exactly who I want to be. I see students coming in low and leaving class feeling like they could do whatever they wanted in life.”

Fernandez teaches English writing and composition, creative writing, and also serves as the faculty coordinator for the FLC's Prison and Reentry Education Program, teaching composition classes at Mule Creek State Prison through that program.
