February 9th, 2017 by WCBC Radio

On Wednesday, February 8, 2017, the Allegany County Chamber of Commerce Leadership Allegany! Class of 2017 participated in the program’s annual Education Day co-hosted by the Allegany County Public Schools, Allegany College of Maryland, and Frostburg State University.  The day’s theme was “Working Together Today for a Strong Tomorrow.”

            The class began their day at Frostburg State University, where they had the opportunity to hear from a panel consisting of ACPS Superintendent of Schools, Dr. David Cox; ACM President, Dr. Cynthia Bambara; and FSU President, Dr. Ronald Nowaczyk, about the day’s theme.  Class members were able to gain a better understanding of the educational institutions in Allegany County and their efforts to meet the needs of students in today’s rapidly changing world.

            Each of the panelists gave a brief overview of their respective organizations and was called upon to elaborate on specific questions of interest from the class. Following the panel discussion, the Leadership Allegany! Class had the opportunity to tour FSU’s Center for Communication and Information Technology; see a demonstration of FSU-TV3’s studio; and hear from a student panel discussion about FSU Today and Tomorrow.
