Lewis-Clark State College will hand out 634 degrees and certificates to 609 students, both all-time records, during the college’s commencement ceremony Friday at the LCSC Activity Center.
Tony Fernandez, LCSC Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, says this year’s numbers are a result of the college’s long-term plan put in place in 2004 when enrollment numbers jumped.
