"Greensboro’s higher education institutions are powerful resources for economic development, particularly if they work together with the business community collaboratively and focus on initiatives that will make major/transformational differences in our economy. Being involved is part of my job, but more importantly, achieving the successes that I envision will be critical to the future quality of life in our community.
