HoCo Community Chat Sept 2024 - A county beacon: Howard Community College
We always hear how strong our public school system is in Howard County. And it doesn’t stop there.
Our community college, known as HCC, is a beacon in the county. What was once a small campus in 1970 now boasts a large footprint and welcomes 22,000 students a year!
This month, we’re talking to two Howard Community College leaders: the fifth president of Howard Community College, Dr. Daria Willis, and Stephanie Wall, chief of HCC’s Staff and Special Projects.
