MILWAUKEE (Feb. 8, 2010) - Milwaukee Area Technical College has launched a new presence on Facebook to provide information to high school students who are taking courses for MATC credit.

The page - smartCREDITS - will provide timely information to students, parents and teachers on the popular social networking site.
