Amazon and SNAP Abilities on Liberal Arts Campus

LBCC is pleased to report two new features that will help our students with day-to-day life on campus. Our own LAC Viking Express convenience store has been authorized as a SNAP retail store. This will be a great benefit to our students who use SNAP, which is commonly known as EBT or the Supplemental Assistance Program.

Students can also now take advantage of a new Amazon Locker next to the Campus Safety building and lot X. Students without home addresses (and College employees and community) can utilize the locker for pick up orders and convenient returns.
