Our staff and students organized some amazing things for the campus and students to celebrate the holiday spirit, including creating their very own rendition of the 12 Days of Holidays. Each day we shared a different ‘gift’ on our social media accounts, featuring our students, partners, and fun festivities around the campus!

The holidays are a great opportunity to appreciate your surroundings. Here at CAU we truly appreciate all our staff and students. We’re looking forward to the new year, as we welcome new students to our campus and plan more events and activities to spread awareness about the aviation industry.
For instance, we’re inviting prospective pilots and their families to our Open House on January 13th where they can tour the campus, meet with faculty, staff, and admissions representatives. Additionally, Air Wisconsin will be joining us on campus January 18th to discuss their cadet program with our students. Be sure to stay tuned for future events on campus and in a community near you.
Thank you for making this year and holiday season so joyous! We’re grateful for each and every one of you!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
