ACC launches a new resource this spring for students who want to stay informed and updated on relevant issues and college decisions that may impact them called the Student InfoHub.
After piloting the student-dedicated newsroom earlier this spring, the Office of College Relations & Marketing (OCRM) surveyed select groups of students to learn how well the page meets their needs. The college received feedback from targeted student groups, including the Student Government Association, Phi Theta Kappa, and Student Life members, and incorporated it into the current version of the Student InfoHub.
Feedback included clear titles, requests for information about campus activities and events, news from leadership and Board of Trustees updates, and information impacting students. Students indicated they felt more informed and planned to visit the new resource regularly.
The web page’s goal is to foster a sense of community among students and provide them with one place to receive critical updates and news. OCRM will work closely with partners throughout the college, including Student Affairs offices, to gather news and important updates to share with students.
Students can find news about college initiatives or programs, opportunities to learn about campus events, and read about Board and leadership news and actions. Students can also look through multi-media slideshows featuring students, activities, and events from across the district and read about fellow Riverbats through our student stories section.
The new site is available at students.austincc.edu/infohub and is expected to launch in April 2024.
