Education Council President Will Visit Community Colleges
KENTUCKY...
Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education President Bob King will be on the road again later this month, paying visits to community colleges around the state.
King has already visited colleges in Bowling Green, Edgewood, Hazard, Hopkinsville, Lexington, Louisville and Madisonville. Next he'll head to Ashland, Elizabethtown, Henderson, Maysville, Owensboro and Somerset, among others.
The council says King previously visited the state's public four-year universities.
King says it's rewarding to meet with the people who make the colleges run and that personal visits give meaning to the information he must use every day.
King decided to visit each school to learn about academic programs and have a look at facilities. The council says he also likes to meet with campus leaders, faculty and staff, students and community leaders.
