Welcome to Mayland
Community College!
Coming to college is a major life step. For many of you, it may
be a continuation of your high school years, while for others it
may be a frightening experience into unknown territory. Either
way, I assure you that you will find friends and advisors in all
areas of the college who will help make Mayland your home! Our
plan is for you to be successful!
Mayland is a Learning College. Being a Learning College means
that we plan for you to learn the academic, technical, and
personal skills that will prepare you for a successful career or for
transfer to a four-year college. But it also means that you will learn from the social,
academic, creative, athletic, and leadership opportunities available to you.
Whether you are a work-study student, an SGA officer, a member of an organization, or a
busy full-time student, you will enjoy the collaboration with fellow students, instructors and
staff. Take advantage of every experience and know that the satisfaction you receive will be
the greatest reward of all - as you become a true lifelong learner.
Much success to you.
Dr. Suzanne Y. Owens
President
