IVCC Hosts: “The Struggle is Real”

     Illinois Valley Community College hosts “The Struggle is Real,” a panel discussion about failure from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, April 25 in Rooms CTC124-125.

            The free event features IVCC Dean of Learning Resources Dr. Patrice Hess, Assistant Director of Admissions, Records and Transfer Services Aseret Loveland and students Nic Bollis and Lillian Rodrigues sharing their own stories of failure and how they bounced back.

            Disability Services Coordinator and instructor Tina Hardy said, “We hope attendees will come away with the idea that struggle, failure and disappointment are common, just part of being human.  Everyone experiences these things, no matter how put together others look on the outside or on social media.
