EVC Updates

Welcome to Evergreen Valley College

Dear EVC Students,

 

Welcome to Evergreen Valley College!


We are very grateful that you have chosen EVC to take classes this fall. We are here to support you in and out of the classroom with many resources, from health and overall wellness support, free groceries, support services, and more. 


We will be in regular communication with you throughout the semester to provide updates on events, activities, resources, and ongoing information.


We hope you will make connections that count with students, staff, and faculty at EVC.

Welcome from Your Associated Student Government


Welcome back incoming and returning students! 

 

I hope you all had a great summer! 

 

For some it’s probably a hard and abrupt switch, but now it’s time to hit the books. But don’t worry, you don’t have to go through this transition alone. Always know that you have many support resources on campus. From mental health support at The Student Health and Wellness Department (located in SC-124), to the helpful EVC tutor center (located in the Library and MS3 building), to Student Life’s basic needs support (including Cal Fresh, Evc Fresh Market, EVC Second Harvest Food Distribution, EVC FRESH Farmer's Market, the C.A.R.E Clothing Closet etc), to your very own Associated Student Government, and many more, there is always a helping hand within reach on campus. 

 

You have a voice and we wish to be your microphone. Join us, EVC Associated Student Government (ASG), at our weekly meetings— EVERY TUESDAY STARTING AT 3:45pm (Location: Second Floor Gullo I). I’ll see y’all there! 

 

Whether you are facing new beginnings or near ends, on behalf of EVC’s entire student body, I welcome you all back for a good fall semester!  

 

Best,

Ayan Dalmar 

Your EVC ASG President
