Palmer
Campus, in collaboration with Cosmetology, Health Sciences, Film, Media and
Visual Arts, and the Culinary Institute of Charleston, has planned a week of
student-driven activities for Spirit Week 2017.
The
week kicks off Monday, Oct. 30, with a student welcome event in the campus
courtyard and park. Spirit Week will continue with a Safety Awareness Fair
Tuesday, Oct. 31, College Transfer Fair Wednesday, Nov. 1, and Health Expo for
Trident Tech students Thursday, Nov. 2. The week will conclude with Eastside
Day on Friday, Nov. 3. All events are free of charge.
Eastside
Day is held to celebrate Trident Tech students and the heritage of the Eastside
community. This year a special red-carpet event, The Pillars of Palmer, will be
held on Eastside Day. Pillars of Palmer are individuals or groups who have
played an instrumental role in the partnership between Palmer Campus and the
Eastside community. This year’s honorees are Mary Edwards, Gerald Mackey, Dr.
Susan Williams and the Eastside Community Development Corporation, represented
by the four past presidents. The program will include video presentations and
the unveiling of portraits of the honorees created by Trident Tech students.
The event begins at 10 a.m. in the amphitheater, immediately followed by a
gallery opening in the campus library.
