Every year the Columbus State Staff Advisory Council hosts the Cougar 5K Challenge to raise money for student course textbooks and supplies scholarships. The cost of course material is a significant and often overlooked barrier to finishing college. While Columbus State makes every effort to provide students affordable options, sometimes there is no way around the costs of up-to-date, high-quality course textbooks and supplies. Your participation and support of this race will help us to provide coarse material scholarships so students can “cross the finish line” of their education.
