Enough is Enough Campaign


MCC is once again participating in the National Enough is Enough Campaign.  This is a week long campaign to stem societal violence.  This concept came out of NASPA’s keynote address by the Vice President of Virginia Tech in the wake of the recent shooting.  The campaign’s goal is to provide model strategies for broad-based interventions addressing youth violence on the nation's campuses through innovative partnerships between students, parents, and administrators.  If you would like to know more about the Enough is Enough Campaign, please visit https://www.naspa.org/enough/default2.cfm.
