These awards are open to League Alliance member institutions to celebrate outstanding contributions and leadership by community college faculty and staff.

LSC offers opportunities not commonly associated with a community college. High-achieving students can take advantage of graduating with an Honors AA or Honors AS degree through the Honors College at LSC. Another LSC initiative is the LSC Center for Civic Engagement where students can take part in civic activities to help prepare them for life after they graduate.

Spring 2017 registration at LSC is underway with classes staring Jan. 17. Whether you are interested in earning an associate degree, or obtaining workforce education/career training, LSC has a program to help you start close and go far. Learn more by visiting LoneStar.edu.
