WTCC eLTC staff
WTCC eLTC is supporting so many students and faculty in such a critical role. They are carrying us through this pandemic by allowing some normalcy in test-taking. I had one student mention that he worked harder just knowing that he takes his tests on paper and not virtually. The eLTC is awesome!
