Renee Alter, seen here admiring an exhibit of work by Macomb Media and Communication Arts (MACA) students, and her mother, Michelle, were among the nearly 400 high school students and accompanying parents who accepted the invitation to Discover Macomb on April 21 and 28. They toured classrooms and labs, attended a workshop on financial aid, enjoyed a live DJ and free lunch, and learned more about the nearly 200 programs offered at Macomb that lead to associate degrees and certificates. Alter, of St. Clair Shores, is interested in digital illustration and, after the tour, is “definitely considering” enrolling in Macomb’s MACA program. “It really opened our eyes (about what Macomb) has,” said mother Michelle. “Now, I’m so geeked for her because she can complete the whole ball of wax in one place.”
