Great Day at South Coast College

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

Yesterday was a great day at South Coast College.  President Jean Gonzalez found out that all five students who took the academic portion of the CSR examination in August passed.  Thirteen new people qualified to take the CSR examination in October, and Jorge (George) Dominguez sent a poster by way of his sister-in-law Andrea       Morales (who is a court reporting student at South Coast College and a graduate of the Medical Assisting program) depicting the work that he is doing in the LA Superior Courts.  It is no wonder that President Gonzalez always says that South Coast College has great students and great alumni.
