  • “Merritt College puts students first,” “We want to support students financially and lighten the load where we can. We took some inspiration from the Black Panther Party and their iconic ‘free breakfast for kids’ for our own free breakfast program this fall. We’re excited to keep that going for students this spring.” – Merritt College President Dr. David M. Johnson.
