Genetic Test Event At Homestead Campus

The Homestead Campus, located at 500 College Terrace, will host Finding Our Roots, a genetic testing event where students and guests can witness staff and faculty members revealing their ancestry, on Feb. 2 at 11:15 a.m. in building R at Room F-2222. A genealogy scholar will also discuss the results and the process through which genealogy is traced.

“In a time when race seems to separate us, we thought it would be different, enlightening, and fun to figure out our ancestral roots,” said Simeon Richardson, a Homestead Campus English professor.

Admission is free and open to the public. MDC students and employees with decals can park in available campus parking.
