Tampa Bay: SPC President Dr. Tonjua Williams on the Synergy Between Higher Ed and Business
In 1986, Tonjua Williams' mother gave her two choices: Get a job and start helping with bills, or go to college. She chose the college path, enrolling at St. Petersburg College and becoming the first person in her family to earn a college degree. Almost four decades at later, she's risen through the ranks at SPC to become the first woman and first African American president of the college. In this episode, TBBJ Editor Alexis Muellner welcomes Dr. Williams for an enlightening conversation about the synergy between higher ed and business.
