Achievements
Scholarship Reception Honors Donors, Recognizes Recipients
Western Nevada College students got the opportunity to personally thank the individuals who are helping them earn a college degree at the WNC Foundation's twelve annual Scholarship Appreciation & Recognition Reception. The event celebrated the success of 120 students who received a total of $134,430 in scholarship awards.
The generosity of the donors and their support of the WNC scholarship program not only make a difference to students, but also to communities, as WNC scholars meet their academic goals and take their place in the community and work force. Read More.
Jack C. Davis Observatory
The 2800-square-foot Jack C. Davis Observatory at Western Nevada College Carson City houses three telescopes, including one 10-inch and two 16-inch reflecting telescopes. A 4-inch refracting telescope is located in a robodome outside the observatory and controlled from within the observatory.
The observatory is open to the public on Saturday evenings throughout the year.

Honored guests Dorothy and Rob Ramsdell are gratefully applauded for their generous donation that made the new Child Development Center Playground possible. The centerpiece of the new playground is an elaborate and challenging new play structure, which received rave reviews from its first users.
