I have worked in the continuing education department at Alamance Community College <br /> so am familiar with the community college system. I also teach high school at The Hawbridge <br /> School and know the value community colleges add to the local community. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> All of my work experience for the past 25 years has been in education. Education is a passion of <br /> mine. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br /> Durham Technical Community College Board of Trustees <br /> What improvements do you believe can be made so that DTCC better serves the <br /> residents of Orange County? <br /> I have lived in Orange County for 22 years and have worked in the field of education the entire <br /> time. I spend a great deal of my time in Hillsborough. I frequent businesses and the library. I <br /> rarely miss a town festival. I am in Chapel Hill at least once a week. While I am quite familiar <br /> with Alamance Community College, the Durham campus of Durham Technical Community <br /> College and the local universities, I have minimum knowledge of the Orange County campus of <br /> DTCC. I realize the campus was only opened in 2008, but I have not come across information <br /> about the Orange County campus of DTCC, other than what I've actively sought out through the <br /> website and social media. From what I've found through my research, the college provides many <br /> excellent opportunities for both formal and informal education. So, one way that DTCC could <br /> better serve the residents of Orange County is to help the residents of Orange County become <br /> more aware of the diverse ways in which the campus serves Orange County. <br /> Other Comments: <br /> This application was current on: 4/3/2015 10:01:01 AM Date Printed: 7/31/2015 <br />
