Northeast Mississippi Community College president Dr. Ricky G. Ford sits with Marketing and Public Relations Specialist Liz Calvery to discuss the college's recent memorandum of understanding between the Northeast Honors Institute and the University of Southern Mississippi's Honors College and how it benefits Northeast students in extending their educational opportunities. In the second part of the interview, Ford and Calvery talk about how the college and the community work hand in hand on different projects and how the college is available for the community's needs, such as the college's Diesel Mechanics program servicing the fire engines for the City of Booneville and Prentiss County and how agreements such as these not only benefit those served but the college as well. To wrap up the time, Ford gives listeners the Northeast News and discusses upcoming events on the college's calendar.  For those who may have missed an episode, all Northeast TigerTalk episodes are archived at https://nemcctigertalk.simplecast.com. 🎙️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.
