Host Will Kollmeyer welcomes listeners to the twenty-fourth edition of the TigerTalk podcast with Northeast political science/history instructor and president of the NEMCC Faculty Association Will Bowlin, who talks about the upcoming presentation by U.S. Representative Trent Kelly on Monday, April 23, the role of the Faculty Association and how Northeast’s iPad experience has transformed the classroom for faculty. Northeast transition specialist and SMART start coordinator Charlie Smart stops by with one of his success stories — Darren Sparks of Iuka — as Smart talks about the upcoming High School Equivalency (HSE) graduation on Monday, May 14, the two FREE short-term career pathways programs (a business pathway and a medical pathway program) and Sparks addresses what made him take the alternate route via the HSE after suffering a sports injury in high school. Sparks has become a success story after completing his HSE, he has enrolled full-time at Northeast and wants to be an art teacher. In one of our largest interviews in TigerTalk history, eight members from the Division of Health Sciences join us in the form of Division Head of Health Sciences Patti Cooper, program director for the Associate Degree Nursing Camille Beals, registered dental hygienist and faculty member for dental hygiene technology program Julie Davidson, Medical Assisting program director Vickie Hopkins, clinical coordinator of the Medical Laboratory Technology program Rosalyn Singleton, program director of the Practical Nursing Education program Dr. Paula Stennett, program director for the Radiologic Technology program Jennifer Davis and director of the Respiratory Care Technology program Beverly Prince all join us to talk about their programs. As always, Kenny Paul Geno gives us his weekly spotlight of what is coming up at Northeast in this twenty-third edition of the TigerTalk podcast.
