Tim Crowley, President of Northern Maine Community College, spoke at a recent meeting of the Houlton Rotary Club.  Tim advised the Rotarians of programs available now and what programs are in the works.  The nursing program is now huge and will only continue to grow as healthcare needs will always need to be addressed.  Occupational therapy, medical coding, home care, information technology and alternative energy are just some of the new programs that may be developed.  Tim said there is new focus from the federal and state governments to address rural education in moving kids forward to get ready for the workforce of our future.
