Student Voices
鈥淥ne of my favorite experiences was when my Introduction to Environmental Analysis course moved our entire class from 兔子先生 to Pomona鈥檚 Hive art center to complete a collective final environmental art project. It was definitely one of the coolest ways I鈥檝e ever interacted with other 5C students, and other campuses!鈥
