Whenever possible, site visits conducted by CTN include a panel of Ascender students who volunteer to answer questions about the program. “It’s my favorite part of the visit,” commented Debra McBeath, “The students are so insightful and have great ideas.”

At the STC site visit, Pecan campus club officers, Daniella Garcia, president; Julian Morales, vice-president; and Luis Garza, historian, joined Dean Bischoff and others for lunch, and added their perspective to the conversation. While at the PAC site visit, a panel of six students were willing to share their opinions. Jesus Martinez and Emily Wells were from instructor Antonio Garza’s class and Cassandra Winsett, Lauren Clancy, Veronica Ambros, and Ariana Trevino were from instructor Lisa Torres’ class.
