As the fall semester begins, the Coalinga College Firebaugh Center is buzzing with excitement as we welcome over 300 students for the new academic year. With a strong commitment to providing quality education and a vibrant campus experience, this semester promises to be an enriching journey for all.

This fall, our students will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on classes that go beyond traditional lectures. Whether you’re interested in exploring the latest in technology, diving into the arts, or enhancing your practical skills, there’s something for everyone.

These interactive courses are designed to give students real-world experience, ensuring they’re well-prepared for their future careers.

To kick off the new semester, which began Aug.12, we had a lineup of fun and engaging Welcome Week activities. From meet-and-greets to workshops and social events, there’s plenty to get excited about. These activities were the perfect way to reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and immerse yourself in the vibrant community that defines our campus.

If you haven’t yet enrolled or are looking to add more classes to your schedule, there’s still time. We are offering a variety of short-term classes that are open for enrollment. These courses provide a flexible option for students looking to accelerate their studies or explore new subjects. You can find the full list of available classes and enroll today by visiting westhillscollege.com/firebaugh.

Welcome back, students. We are thrilled to have you with us and look forward to a successful and fulfilling semester at Coalinga College Firebaugh Center. Let’s make this year one to remember.

Go Falcons!
