Congratulations Natacha Diaz – the winner of our recent iPod drawing!

Students who stopped by the Center this past year for service and leadership advising were sent an Advising Satisfaction Survey, to help us know how we do and how we can improve our student services. Everyone who completed the survey was entered into the drawing for a chance to win an iPod. Thank you to those who completed the survey. The information you provided was very valuable to our department. For more information about student service and leadership advising, call us at 850-644-3342 or stop by.
