Welcome to Launch Increasing the momentum of students is imperative for student success – especially for part-time community college students. Research shows that students who take summer classes to maintain their academic momentum out preform their peers when it comes to degree completion. Taking even one class can make a meaningful difference in your academic success. Washtenaw Community College offers a wide range of Spring/Summer semester classes to help current WCC students as well as guest students from other institutions catch up, stay on track or get ahead to ensure timely graduation. Here are some reasons why you should consider taking summer classes at WCC: • The average class size is 23 students, which allows for a lot of individual attention to help you succeed • Save on tuition - most students will save at least $21,000 by taking their first two years (60 credits) of general education courses at WCC compared to the top 20 largest four-year colleges in Michigan • Hundreds of Spring/Summer classes to choose from both online and on campus At WCC, we understand that attending college is an investment of time, money and effort toward your future. Whatever your professional or educational goal, we look forward to helping you achieve it. With warm regards, Rose B. Bellanca, Ed.D. President, Washtenaw Community College

NASA A WCC Education Launches a Successful Aerospace Career for WCC Alumna Aisha Bowe
Aisha Bowe has two aerospace engineering degrees from the University of Michigan, spent nearly seven years working for NASA in northern California and today is a successful tech entrepreneur based in the Washington D.C. area. That impressive career progression all started with a single A in an algebra class at Washtenaw Community College. That set off what Bowe calls the key to any large-scale success – a series of small wins. “The progress you make every day, the incremental wins you think are insignificant, are life-changing,” said Bowe. “If I take the time to think about how many opportunities there were for me to get stuck, it’s staggering. But then you find that next small win and you keep going.” Her self-doubt was monumentally strong when her father – who earned an engineering degree at the age of 40 – persuaded her to enroll in an Intermediate Algebra class. It’s a story she previously shared in a Forbes magazine profile, “From Community College to NASA.”

The progress you make every day, the incremental wins you think are insignificant, are lifechanging.”
WCC is by far the best choice I made in my career. That’s really
where my life started to take off.” - Aisha Bowe, Aerospace Engineer and WCC Alumni
“My dad believed I had this latent genius I wasn’t expressing,” Bowe said. “I didn’t do well in high school math. I didn’t do well in the math portions of my first economics class. Why would he think I could tackle algebra at WCC? I wasn't buying it, but he was persuasive.” Turns out, dad was right. Bowe earned an A in that algebra class. Her selfconfidence continued to flourish as she progressed through Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III and Differential Equations at WCC.
There were some failures and “freakouts” at U-M, Bowe admits, but each was overcome with more small wins. They led to a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree and an internship at the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California, and eventually to an awardwinning career developing algorithms in support of air traffic management.
“The instructors at WCC were incredibly supportive. They didn’t look at me and say, ‘You should have learned this stuff in high school.’ They said, ‘We’re here to help you learn this now,’” Bowe said. “They challenged me to think differently about myself.” From there, the small wins continued to pile up. She met University of Michigan engineering students in her WCC math classes – there to capitalize on WCC’s small class sizes and individualized instruction. “I started thinking, ‘If you and I are in the same class, we’re on the same level … why can’t I study engineering at Michigan?’” Turns out, she could. She was accepted directly into the U-M Aerospace Engineering program in the winter of 2005, saving herself more than $30,000 on her undergraduate education.
In 2013, she co-founded STEMBoard, which partners with defense industry and private-sector organizations to provide multi-million dollar smart systems and software solutions. She has topped a list of “Brilliant Women Innovators” and been featured in Entrepreneur, Black Enterprise and Ebony magazines.
The instructors at WCC were incredibly supportive. They didn’t look at me and say, ‘You should have learned this stuff in high school.’ They said, ‘We’re here to help you learn this now.” 5
Summer SMARTER I took classes at Washtenaw Community College while I was attending EMU. My WCC credits transferred easily to Eastern, it was more affordable and the classes were offered at times that fit my schedule. I know a lot of students who say that all these options helped them, too.� - Adam Young, Detroit

WCC Spring/Summer classes help students stay on track for less
More and more four-year college and university students are turning to community college classes during summer vacation to help them stay on track for graduation. Summer for many college students is a time to kick back, relax and forget about school. But, it’s the perfect time to keep working toward the future. And there is no better or more cost-effective place to do that than Washtenaw Community College.
SAVE MONEY AND TIME Students can earn college credit this summer by taking courses that successfully transfer to colleges and universities within the state through the Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA). The MTA allows for the transfer of 30 credits of core general education courses from a Michigan community college to a Michigan four-year college or university.
WCC offers online, face-toface and mixed-mode 6-week, 10-week and 12-week courses at a fraction of the cost of a four-year university. Just how much can students save by taking classes at WCC? It’s easy to find out by visiting the College’s online tuition savings calculator at WCCNET.EDU/SAVE.
wherever
CL ASSES WHENEVER, WCC also offers 31 degree programs that are available completely online in Information Technology, Business and Transfer Programs designed to seamlessly transfer to a four-year degree. Online classes and course information can be accessed at any time via a computer or device with a high-speed internet connection. They feature interactive, multimedia-based classrooms and provide easy interaction with peers and instructors through email, web conferencing and other online tools.

ashtenaw Community College recently introduced its latest recruiting tool — a sassy, red Polaris Slingshot equipped with smart car technology and modified in the College’s advanced manufacturing labs by a team of automotive service and motorcycle program faculty, staff and students. Each modification represents a different skill or technology being taught on campus. “Everything done to this vehicle was something that our students can learn in a class today, and it was done on equipment that is being used in the

workplace today,” said Al Lecz, director of WCC's Advanced Transportation Center. “This kind of hands-on experience is what gives our students a competitive advantage when they’re seeking employment.” Sections of WCC’s vehicle are customized with lightweight carbon fiber materials and 3D printed parts. It is also equipped with front and side LiDAR — a remote sensing method that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to detect and measure distance to objects. Other equipment includes a dedicated shortrange communications (DSRC) system capable of sending and receiving basic safety messages between vehicles, traffic infrastructure and pedestrians. The newly modified vehicle was first shown at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January.

Making College More Affordable It’s 2019, and Americans are more burdened by student loan debt than ever. Americans owe over $1.56 trillion in student loan debt, spread out among about 45 million borrowers. That’s about $521 billion more than the total U.S. credit card debt. And, according to a recent study, people ages 24 to 32 are putting off major life milestones – like purchasing their first house – because of student debt. A recent study by the Federal Reserve Board Division of Research & Statistics claims young adult home
ownership fell from 45 percent to 36 percent between 2005 and 2014. Multiple factors affected the homeowner rate. However, the study claims roughly one-fifth of the decline was tied directly to student debt.
The best way to avoid student debt, of course, is to lower the cost of education.

6 Things You Can Do to Earn a Degree for Less
Start With a Plan
Unforeseen costs can threaten to derail even the most driven students. Create a plan that considers everything. Plan well, and think about how you need to spend your time and money to finish college faster and start putting your degree to work. Check out the programs WCC offers at WCCNET.EDU/PROGRAMS
Reap Benefits of Community College
Save on tuition – most students will save at least $21,000 by taking their first two years (60 credits) of general education courses at WCC compared to the top 20 largest four-year colleges in Michigan. WCC also offers numerous programs with articulation agreements that allow students to transfer after three years, rather than two, saving students even more. Find out how much you save by taking classes at WCC at WCCNET.EDU/SAVE
Value Scholarships
Do the easy stuff, like completing FAFSA and other aid forms on time. Talk with your school’s financial aid department. Apply for everything you quality for. Savvy students can find scholarship money. Students that secure scholarships are able to work fewer hours at their jobs so they can focus on classes and get done more quickly. Find out more about scholarships at WCCNET.EDU/SCHOLARSHIPS
Save on Textbooks
Books are expensive. In health care and science majors, students can spend $800 to $1,200 each semester on textbooks. At WCC, this expense is declining with open education resources, also known as OERs. The program is gaining steam, and has saved students over $2 million since it began. Where OERs don’t yet exist, students can often rent books for a fraction of the cost of purchase.
Graduate on Time
The longer you are there, the more it costs. Be one of the students who graduates on time and saves money in extra tuition. When you factor in lost time you could be earning money in the workforce, finishing on time is a no brainer. Find out more at WCCNET.EDU/15TOFINISH
Arrive with Credits
Research what partnerships exist between your high school and community college for dual enrollment, career and technical education, and early/middle college programs. The tuition is paid by the school district and students can earn up to an associate degree or (approx. 60 credits). That’s two years of college paid for by the district. Check out the programs WCC offers at WCCNET.EDU/DUAL-ENROLLMENT 11
Law School Bound
Student leaving an ‘indelible mark’ on WCC on her way to law school
M
atea Pejic was born in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in the area that is now recognized as Croatia.
In 1997, during the wars that came after the breakup of Yugoslavia, she immigrated with her mother to the United States as a refugee and settled in Grand Rapids with the assistance of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). Today, Pejic is a Washtenaw Community College student and is the founder and president of the WCC UNICEF Campus Initiative and President of the college’s Pre-Law Club. Pejic came to WCC to enroll in the college’s Paralegal Studies/ PreLaw program with the intention of gaining a job in a law firm to increase her odds of being accepted to the University of Michigan Law School.
If you already have a bachelor’s degree, you can start your paralegal classes right away—no need to take general education courses.
“I wanted to be a lawyer from a very young age, but I also had a passion for history,” said Pejic. “I wanted to study what happened during the break up of Yugoslavia, international law, and the trials that occurred after the breakup.”
PARALEGAL CAREER STATS
Prior to coming to WCC, Pejic attended Northern Illinois University, where she graduated with two bachelor’s degrees in history and political science, with an emphasis on international politics.
2017 MEDIAN PAY
$50,410 per year / $24.24 per hour
While Pejic’s degrees and experience could get her into most law schools, she has her sights set on UM Law School for very specific reasons.
TYPICAL ENTRY-LEVEL EDUCATION
“The University of Michigan Law School is one for the best in the country and gives me the best chance of working in international law outside of the major Ivy League law schools,” said Pejic.
NUMBER OF JOBS, 2016
After getting accepted to UM Law School, Pejic’s next goal is to gain internships at either the International Court of Justice or the International Criminal Court, or both.
