MENDOCINO COLLEGE LAKE CENTER PLANNING TO RE-OPEN BY AUGUST 13 IN TIME FOR FALL SEMESTER

The Mendocino-Lake Community College District is planning to re-open its Lake Center doors by August 13 in order to begin preparing for the upcoming fall semester which begins on August 20. The center has been closed since July 30 because of mandatory evacuations in the city of Lakeport put in place due to the Mendocino Complex fires. Restoration experts are working hard to complete all required work so that college staff and students can safely return to the center. 

While the Ukiah campus continues to operate as an Evacuation Center in coordination with Mendocino County and American Red Cross, students can visit the Admissions and Records office or call 707-468-3000 to register, enroll for classes and get questions answered relating to the fall semester.

A list of resources for students affected by the fires can be found on the college Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/MendocinoCollege/
