Valerie A. Smith, Director

Welcome from the TRIO Director

On behalf of the TRIO students and staff welcome to the TRIO program and Lansing Community College. Your success is important to us, and we are here to guide and direct you through your educational journey.  We provide a number of services designed in helping you achieve your academic goals.

I encourage you to access all of the services we have available as these services are critical as you pursue and achieve each milestone toward your associates degree, certificates of achievement and completion and ultimately transfer to a four year institution to earn your baccalaureate degree.  Congratulations on choosing to be a part of the TRIO program and I look forward to meeting you.

Yours in support of student success,
