Arizona College is thankful to all Veterans, especially to those Veterans who have chosen to attend Arizona College to achieve their educational goals.  We are continually evaluating our services and process available to better serve our Veteran students with resources both on and off campus.  Mr. Dennis Hobgood is our Agency Director, and he is the contact for any student Veteran that might need some assistance or has any questions.

On February 18th, 2014, Ms. Sinema visited our Mesa campus, which is located in her District #9.  As an adjunct instructor at Arizona State University and a former social worker, she understands the value of education and the importance of schools like Arizona College.  Ms. Sinema took a tour of the college and spent some time talking with several Arizona College students.  The students discussed their backgrounds, why they enrolled in school, and why they chose to attend Arizona College.  Afterwards, she attended a luncheon with several local Career College Executives, hosted by Arizona College.  She led an engaging discussion about education policy and other subjects that are affecting the state of Arizona.

After assessing the strengths and needs of each client, the qualified music therapist provides the indicated treatment including creating, singing, moving to, and/or listening to music.”
