Due to excessive heat warnings in the Miami Valley area, Clark State Community College will open all campus locations as public cooling stations, today, Thursday, July 18 and Friday, July 19.

“I am happy to say that Clark State recognizes and addresses the needs of the communities it serves, and during this time of extreme heat, the college is opening its doors to help those who may not have access to find relief,” said Ron Gordon, dean of enrollment services for Clark State.
