Teal Bash

TEAL Bash is El Paso Community College’s premier annual Welcome Back event and one of the College’s largest student engagement traditions. Held during the first week of the fall semester, this free event is open to all students, their families, and members of the community, providing an opportunity to experience the spirit, culture, and energy of EPCC firsthand.

Designed to connect students with the College, TEAL Bash brings together student organizations, academic departments, and campus service areas to showcase the many resources, programs, and involvement opportunities available throughout EPCC. The event supports student engagement, fosters a sense of belonging, and increases awareness of services that contribute to student success.

Students can enjoy free food, games, giveaways, and prizes while being immersed in a true EPCC Tejano experience. TEAL Bash also features live entertainment from a variety of musical acts and local artists, creating a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere for students and their families. Through music, activities, and opportunities for connection, TEAL Bash serves as an exciting kickoff to the academic year and a celebration of the EPCC community.
