San Diego Mesa College’s Financial Literacy Series is back by popular demand to present students with more exciting speaker events for the fall 2018 semester.
On Thursday, March 1, 2018 the first of the Spring 2018 Financial Literacy Speaker Series events – The Tax Man Cometh – took place from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in LRC 435. Guest speaker, Paul Lim, addressed nearly 50 students, staff and faculty on the basics of income tax, issues to consider, how to calculate deductions, and various strategies the common working person can use to avoid paying too much in taxes each year. Attendees were busy taking notes and filing out the provided tax forms as Lim guided them through the process of filling in the right numbers on these often confusing forms.
On Thursday, Oct 26, San Diego Mesa College held its fourth installment in the Financial Literacy Speaker Series, “Identity Theft”, with Navy veteran and Financial Coach Rae Russell. Russell is a returning speaker from the previous Financial Literacy events and spends her time mentoring families on how to manage their finances.
