Area Students Participate in SSC Upward Bound Hawaii Trip over summer Seminole State College had six-
teen Upward Bound Bridge stu-dents recently return home from their week-long global studies class trip to Hawaii.
For six weeks, 140 students from Seminole, Pottawatomie, Hughes and Okfuskee counties stayed on the SSC campus as a part of the college’s Upward Bound summer residential program. Sixteen of those were “Bridge” students who were recent high school graduates enrolled in college courses over the summer.
Ending the summer school ses-sion, Bridge students who passed each of their classes with a “B” or better were eligible to partici-pate in the Summer Bridge Global Studies Class. The destination and length of the tour are determined
by the amount of funds raised by the students throughout their four-year association with the program.
The class included coursework at SSC and a one-week trip to Ha-waii where the students learned about Hawaiian culture, history and toured the Hawaii Volcano National Park.
“For most students participating in the program this is their first op-portunity to fly and see the ocean. It’s an opportunity for them to do something they never thought they would be able to do. It has prov-en to be a great retention tool and valuable learning experience for participants,” said Upward Bound I Coordinator Leslie Sewell.

Quinn new head basketball coach Seminole State College recently
announced that Ryan Quinn, current assistant men’s basketball coach, will become the new head coach for the Seminole State College Trojans.
Quinn will take over the SSC program immediately replacing Dr. Tom Mills who has accepted the position of Dean of Instructional Compliance at Seminole State Col-lege.
“Ryan has done an excellent job for us with his duties as the Assis-tant Coach for SSC and has demon-strated his ability to recruit and get the most out of his athletes,” said Dr. Brad Walck, Vice President for Student Affairs. “With the adminis-trative and community support that Seminole will provide him, we are sure that he can lead Trojan Basket-ball to the top of Region II.”
Quinn came to SSC from the Uni-versity of Central Oklahoma where he was the Graduate Assistant Coach for two years. His academic
credentials include a bachelor’s de-gree in Social Studies Education from the University of Oklahoma and a master’s degree in Physical Education from the University of Oklahoma.
Quinn said he is excited to be assuming the helm of the Trojan men’s basketball program. “I am very thankful for the opportunity to serve as head coach. We have a good group of guys who have dem-onstrated great attitudes and team-work. I am looking forward to the upcoming season,” he said.
The Trojans will open their sea-son at home against Oklahoma Baptist University Junior Varsity on Nov. 1. They will then hit the road for two neutral court games in Weatherford, Okla. at the Okla-homa-Texas Challenge hosted by Southwestern Oklahoma State Uni-versity. The Trojans will play Frank Phillips and Howard College on Nov. 3 and 4.
