Arizona Western College has partnered with the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area and Greater Yuma Economic Development on a new sign installation featured at the Yuma Campus.

Professors and students in the Welding program recently created a new UMA sign located between the Engineering Building and the Theater, 2020 S. Ave. 8E. A campus map can be found here. The sign serves as a photo opportunity for visitors to be the ‘Y’ in Yuma.
