What's your favorite Oxnard College moment?

It's almost time to celebrate OC's golden anniversary and we could use your help.

We'll take the opportunity to share memorable moments, praise the efforts of outstanding faculty and administrators, and recognize the accomplishments of students and alumni.

Was graduation your favorite moment? How about the first day of classes? Could it have been a classroom memory? How about a class project, student organization, or campus event?

Please take a quick moment to let us know. We're creating a book of favorite moments, instructors, classes, and photos. Visit www.oxnardcollegefoundation.org/50th-collection to share your favorite memory.
