No one strives to forge these connections with students more than TSC President Jes\u00fas Roberto Rodr\u00edguez, who hosted Pizza with the President and Breakfast with the President events Sept. 24-25 at the Oliveira Student Services Center and the ITEC Center, respectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cI always look forward to attending these events each semester because they give me a chance to meet with students, get to know them, hear their stories, find out what\u2019s on their minds, and how we can serve them better,\u201d said Dr. Rodr\u00edguez. \u201cWe want students to feel at home at TSC. That is why we host events such as these so that we can provide students a welcoming environment that gives them a sense of belonging at the college.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both events gave students the opportunity to get to know Dr. Rodr\u00edguez and provide them an avenue for dialogue where they can express their expectations, hopes, and concerns about the college with the TSC president.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt very privileged to get to know the president,\u201d said Juan Lucio, a cadet in the TSC Police Academy. \u201cIt gives us the opportunity to have a better perspective of everything and get acquainted with the people who run the college.\u201d<\/p>\n

The events saw students coming together to meet TSC President Rodr\u00edguez, as well as other upper administration, faculty and staff throughout the college who strive to help students succeed.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Rodr\u00edguez is a really good advocate for students,\u201d said Maria Del Carmen Reyes, an Associate Degree Nursing major in the newly opened ADN program. \u201cHe wants us to be successful, not just for ourselves, but for the whole community to grow. It makes the students feel like they are heard and more than just a number. We are individuals, each of us has a story, and when the administration gets to hear us, they can really go out and advocate for student success.\u201d<\/p>\n
