If you’ve been wanting to join the conversation about higher education in Kentucky, here’s your chance. The Council on Postsecondary Education invites the public to participate in five town hall meetings – including one in Northern Kentucky – to provide input on a new plan that will guide Kentucky’s higher education and adult education systems for the next five years.
The meetings are set in Pikeville, Frankfort, Somerset, Murray and Highland Heights beginning next week.
Council President Bob King said, “Conversations at the local level will help shape the state’s plan in key priority areas–improving college access and opportunity, student success and growing a more highly skilled workforce, and stronger local and state economies.”
The public meetings will be held from 6-8 p.m. at all locations. The schedule is listed below.
‒ Wednesday, July 15 – University of Pikeville, Community Technology Center, Room 125, Pikeville.
‒ Thursday, July 16 – Student Center Ballroom, 4th floor, Kentucky State University, Frankfort.
‒ Monday, July 20 – Harold Rogers Student Commons, Community Room, Somerset Community College, Somerset.
