Laura Urban gave an update on the Alexandria Technical and Community College. The college enrolls approximately 4,000 students and offers certificates, diplomas, and associate degrees. Laura shared that the college has seen a decline in state aid in recent years. Now the state support only covers about one-third of a student’s fees. ATC has a 95 percent job placement, which is the highest graduation rate of all Minnesota two-year schools and one of the highest nationally.
