Dear Supporter,

Record numbers of students are enrolling at Austin Community College. And in concert with their academic work, they also have a unique opportunity to participate in innovative programs designed to encourage their political and civic engagement, and enrich their learning experience. Leading efforts for these programs is the Center for Public Policy & Political Studies, the first non-profit public policy center within a community college in this country.

The Center has built an impressive roster of award-winning programs, paid internships, and educational workshops since its inception in 2007, and is hard at work in gathering support for further innovation and growth in the coming years. This is why they are delighted to announce that the 4th annual luncheon has been set for Friday, May 25, 2012, with Keynote by Former Texas Comptroller and The Texas A&M University System Chancellor John Sharp. The luncheon is being held at the Hilton Austin, 500 East 4th Street, Austin, Texas.

The spring luncheon offers a great opportunity for supporters of the Center to visit with the board and staff, along with many students who have benefited first-hand from Center programs. Your sponsorship of this event will go directly to funding their student-centric programs and services. We hope that you will join us in supporting our students and the top quality programs that they deserve.

If you have any questions about the sponsor form, or for more information about the luncheon, please contact Carla L. Jackson at 512.223.7049 or cjackso3@austincc.edu. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you in May!

Sincerely,

Allen H. Kaplan
Vice President, CPPPS Board of Directors
