Mourning the Passing of a Colleague and Friend

McDowell Technical Community College has once again been named one of the nation’s top 20 community colleges by SmartAssetTM, an online financial technology company which describes itself as having “…the best personal finance advice on the web.” It is the fifth time that McDowell Tech has achieved top 20 status in the ranking, moving up two spots this year, from number 18 to number 16.

McDowell Technical Community College’s first Access to Achievement Coordinator, Sarah Jaynes, is taking big strides as she works to implement individualized strategies to help students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to be successful in academic programs or vocational training at McDowell Tech.
