TLED Print Wall Calendar

About Faces of Our Mission

At Austin Community College (ACC), every student brings a story—and every story matters. This year’s TLED print wall calendar, Faces of Our Mission, honors the diverse journeys that shape our college community, from parenting and veteran students to international, immigrant, and adult learners.

Created for all who support student success—whether in the classroom, on campus, or behind the scenes—the calendar invites reflection and connection. Each month features real student experiences, supported by data from the Office of Institutional Research and Analytics (OIRA), reminding us that inclusive, student-centered practices start with understanding who our students are.

This year’s calendar highlights and celebrates:

Hispanic Students
Parenting & Caregiving Students
Military-Affiliated & Veteran Students
International & Immigrant Students
First-Time-in-College Students
Students of Color
Students with Disabilities & Neurodiverse Learners
Dual Credit & Early College High School Students

Adult Learners

“TLED has been designing and developing calendars as sources of information to foster awareness, spark reflection, showcase innovation, and highlight excellence for the past 18 years… The TLED calendar has grown into a signature project that embodies our mission and values. We hope you enjoy and use the calendar to inform your work and join the conversation on the meaningful ways we can work together to help our students reach their goals.”

—Dr. Susan Warner-Sanchez, Assistant Vice Chancellor, TLED

About the TLED Print Wall Calendar

The TLED Print Wall Calendar began in 2007 as an initiative by TLED Assistant Vice Chancellor, Dr. Susan Warner-Sanchez, to keep faculty and staff connected throughout the academic year. Since then, it has grown into an annual collaboration that highlights ACC’s mission-driven work through themed content and practical resources.

Produced by TLED in partnership with departments across the College, each calendar reflects a shared commitment to student success. More than just a calendar, it’s a visual reminder of the programs, services, and values that support teaching and learning at ACC.
