What's happening in November at SSCC?

Daylight Saving Time ends on November 2

The time change will happen at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 2. That is when 2 a.m. local time instantly becomes 1 a.m. Several devices, such as computers and cellphones, will reset themselves automatically, leaving you to change clocks on older, non-connected electronics. The biannual time change is also a good reminder to swap out the batteries in your home's smoke detectors.

Flu/COVID-19 Shots Offered on Campus

Faculty, staff, and students are invited to the Flu/COVID-19 vaccine shot clinic that will be offered on both campuses in November.

Participants need to bring their insurance card. No insurance? No problem! Shots are $21 out-of-pocket. Please refer to the image below for more information.

Bits & Pieces

Don't forget to update your contact information in SSCC Alerts. With the weather changing, you will want to make sure you receive notifications about campus delays and snow closures. Notifications will be distributed via our web page, social media accounts, and the Southern State Alert System. Announcements will not be made via television or radio. Please remember to refrain from coming to campus for weather-related closures. Everyone’s cooperation will enhance personal safety. It also assists our maintenance personnel immensely when they can clear walks, drives, and parking lots without obstacles.

Follow Southern State on social media (clickable badges below) as well as on the College's blog at www.sscc.blog.
