SGTC students celebrate Earth Day

The South Georgia Technical College Student Affairs department hosted a “Happy Earth Day” event recently in honor of Earth Day.

   Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs Josh Curtin and members of the Student Affairs department provided SGTC students with a free beverage with a reusable straw and an eco-friendly cup.  They also shared with students how to reduce the amount of straws that end up in the oceans and landfills.
