BPCC to host tours, community events at Bossier, Natchitoches campuses

Bossier Parish Community College invites the community to its Bossier and Natchitoches campuses next month for a series of planned events.

BPCC’s Natchitoches Campus will host an Open House on Thursday, October 5, from 5pm to 8pm. Campus tours will be given from 10am until 4pm. Visit www.bpcc.edu/Natchitoches to register for a campus tour at this event.

The Open House event caters to students of all ages as BPCC offers a wide array of programs designed to offer students an accelerated career path through a two-year technical diploma or an associate degree. Both students and parents will have the opportunity meet with administrators, faculty, staff, and current students to learn more about BPCC’s programs, including HVAC Technician, Practical Nursing, Cosmetology, EMT, and Welding. Information about admissions, financial aid, scholarships, student activities and campus organizations will be available.

BPCC’s Office of Student Life will entertain attendees with Doug’s Wire Writing, Names & Faces (Asian Name Art and Caricatures), yard games, and fall themed activities and crafts hosted by the BPCC Student Government Association. There will also be an appearance by Captain Cav and a performance by the Cavalier Cheerleaders and Ladies in Gold Danceline.

As in years past, BPCC’s Natchitoches campus is partnering with the Natchitoches Fire Department Fire Prevention Open House that will run concurrently with the College’s event, bringing in even more activities for students and their families. BPCC’s Natchitoches campus is located at 6587 Highway 1 Bypass.

Cope Student Services Building (Bossier Campus, Building F) from 5pm until 7pm.
