Students at community colleges are often overlooked because of the college they attend, but here at Ivy Tech Community College, we know they are the ones lighting the path forward. Our students come from all walks of life and work hard to achieve their dreams while building a better path forward for those behind them. Inside this edition of Ivy Indy, you will find stories highlighting trailblazers from our student body, faculty, staff, and alums, who are lighting the way and creating space for entire groups of people who would not otherwise have the opportunity to thrive in these capacities.
