Josh Hutton

The Seminole State College Board of Regents held a special meeting on April 6 to ratify a Declaration of a State of Emergency as a result of damage caused by winter storms in February.

Formal support of the declaration by the Board was requested to proceed with repair projects across campus.

The Oklahoma State Risk Management Office, with the defined mission to protect the assets of the State of Oklahoma and SSC, will continue to assist as the College navigates repair projects in various buildings on campus due to damage that occurred in February. The Oklahoma State Risk Management Office estimated the cost to repair all damages at $1 million.
