All the best for 2021 from our campus community
College is community. We are students, family, staff, faculty, administrators, alumni, higher ed partners and all the people who intersect our lives. For students finding their place on a complex and challenging planet, college is a journey to a better world—not just for them, but for everyone around them.
As we say aloha to the year 2020, anxiously hoping the last 12 months are really fading away, we should stop and watch all the fireworks heralding the promise of the new year. Dakota County Technical College is looking forward to 2021 when all our friends and colleagues are back on campus working toward a brighter future.
