TigerTalk 205 07/26/2022

As the 2022 Fall semester approaches, Northeast Mississippi Community College's TigerTalk has reinvented itself by bringing over Liz Roark, the college's Marketing, Recruiting, and Public Relations Specialist from the Northeast NOW podcast to work side-by-side with Northeast president Dr. Ricky G. Ford on Mississippi's longest-running community college podcast. In this short 10-minute segment, Roark and Ford discuss the recent CPR and AED training on campus and the importance of having as many employees certified in the process of CPR as possible just in case an unfortunate event should unfold. Ford and Roark talk about a pair of grants that the college has recently received 1) a grant from the Women's Foundation of Mississippi that will help the college's health science students and 2) a grant from the Blue Cross Blue Shield Foundation of Mississippi that is tied in with the Tobacco Coalition to help promote a tobacco-free campus and that includes not only tobacco, smokeless tobacco such as chew and dip but also vapes and other forms that are now in use. In the final segment of the podcast, the duo discusses some of the Northeast News that has happened over the last week or so and some of the upcoming events that are on the docket for the fall semester.  🎙️TigerTalk – where Northeast tells its story, one episode at a time. For those who may have missed an episode, all Northeast TigerTalk episodes are archived at https://nemcctigertalk.simplecast.com.--NEMCC--Information about Northeast Mississippi Community CollegeNortheast Mississippi Community College is a leading educational institution that provides comprehensive academic, technical, and workforce training programs to empower students and promote lifelong learning.
