As FRCC joins the nation in recognizing Juneteenth, we reflect on the deeper meanings of this important holiday through voices from within the college community.

Two new pieces of student artwork are brightening the walls at FRCC’s Westminster campus this semester. Both are murals designed to welcome fellow students.
