Registering for fall classes? Workday Student is where to enroll, receive financial aid awards and even be assigned an adviser

If you’re registering for summer classes at Pensacola State College, you’ll be going old school.
But students registering for fall classes will use – and are already using – Workday Student for everything from admissions and registration to financial aid and advising.
The Workday Student enterprise resource planning system replaces the legacy Spyglass system, which will be phased out. Students registering for summer classes will still use Spyglass, though all the information in that system is being transferred to the new Workday Student system.
The fall semester begins Aug. 15. Summer classes begin May 11.

David Alexander – Adult Education
Dr. Stephen Gottschalk – Natural Sciences
Dr. Alex Ledgerwood – English and Communications

Academy of Teaching Excellence inductee Dr. Brian Ward started PSC career amid cancer battle

Just three weeks into his teaching career at Pensacola State College – and his first face-to-face teaching gig anywhere – Dr. Brian Ward underwent emergency surgery for stage 3 colon cancer just a day after being diagnosed. The cancer had advanced to that extent.

The surgery was supposed to last four hours – it took eight. He was so bad off surgeons had to stop the procedure four times to regulate Ward’s blood pressure.

Eleven days later, Ward, PSC Lead Human Resources Professor and a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, was in front of his students teaching class.

That was five years ago. Today, Ward said his doctor considers his cancer “cured,’’ though it is not in remission.

Pensacola State College student Katelyn Powell is taking seven classes this semester. Six are Math and Science-based classes – she plans on going to Medical School – and one is Music Appreciation.

“The Music Appreciation class is the hardest class for me,” Katelyn said. “I can’t hear something and just understand the difference between the noises. It’s been hard.”

Yikes, that’s going to hurt a stellar 3.9 grade point average, isn’t it?
