About Mat-Su College

Hello fellow Mat-Su College supporters!
As most of you know we are celebrating our 50th Anniversary this year. T Time Capsule Sub-Committee (Bonnie Wendt, Amy Seamans and Maggie McDaniel) are asking for suggestions on items to be included in our time capsule. We will make a final decision in the fall on what will go in the 2008 Time Capsule (to be opened in 2058). The items will be kept in the Marketing Office until the sealing ceremony.

The list below is an example of what one university put in their time capsule and I hope it gives you ideas about ours.
