Highland Community College hosted its annual Career Fair in Freeport, Illinois, in mid-November. The event hosted over 530 high school students from 10 partner high schools, setting a new post-COVID attendance record, and featured brand-new student materials to support research, learning from, and reflection on the event’s 44 diverse employers.
