mbassadors @ SPC

The Student Ambassador (SA) program is a volunteer group of currently enrolled SPC students who, in addition to attending classes are making a difference in the community. Ambassadors represent St. Petersburg College by attending and volunteering at SPC and community events, speaking to a group of high school students about the college, and giving campus tours. Student Ambassadors offer first-hand knowledge of student life at SPC and can share their experiences with prospective students.
