The MCC Shout-Out Celebration was designed to increase excitement around graduation 2018, and provide a venue for students to show appreciation to outstanding faculty and staff. Using a variety of social media platforms – Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube – students were asked to give a shout-out to a faculty or staff member who had had an impact on them during their time at the college. More than 90 entries were recorded, then edited into a three-minute video shared during Commencement on all social media platforms.
