n the morning of Wednesday,
August 26, the skies were gray and
gloomy. A storm named Andrew was on
its way to Southwest Mississippi after
slamming through Florida and leaving a
path of destruction.
SMCC cancelled classes for the day as
high winds, heavy rain, and
accompanying tornadoes threatened
everyone's safety.

became a refuge for hundreds of people
running from danger.

activities resumed. Not even a killer

on with the work we had to do.

The library provides a quiet place to study with a friend or alone. hen the storm was over, our
spirits lifted as the dark clouds
disappeared and the sky opened up
again.
We got back on track with our goals
and realized the possibilities were
limitless. We accepted challenges,
developed new friendships, played games,
carried on traditions, and made lots of
memories.
For all of us, the opportunities were
there because at SMCC, the sky's the
limit.
