“I have been with SWTC for 17 years.  The reason that I do what I do is because of the impact that we have not just on the communities that we serve, but on the individuals who would otherwise not have the opportunity for education. 

“We looked at launching a laptop program as a retention effort for rural students by empowering them to attend classes remotely and to maintain enrollment in programs.  Accelerated by the challenges of the pandemic, we reached out to Vanguard and they were extremely responsive to us as we didn't really know where to start.  Vanguard was extremely instrumental in helping us keep the doors open and our programs running.

“Vanguard was extremely beneficial for us because of their experience in implementing these kinds of laptop programs in other colleges.  Its more than just ordering a thousand laptops and then as students come through the door and they’re issued one. There's a process that they helped us develop.  They've been here every step of the way.  We would not have been able to do this without Vanguard... not a chance.”

- Dr. Katie Garrity, RN, MSN, EdD Chief Academic Officer
