 Educators from City University will host an informational meeting on Thursday, May 6, starting at 5:30 p.m. at Grays Harbor College’s Fireside Room in the HUB. The accredited university is considering offering three bachelors degree programs for Harbor residents, including Bachelor of Arts degree in Teaching K-8, BA in Management and BA in Early Childhood Education.
The purpose of the meeting on May 6 will be to provide more information about City University and these particular programs, plus assess the level of interest in bachelors degree programs on the Harbor.
“We are pleased that City University is interested in providing bachelor degree options locally,” commented Grays Harbor College President Ed Brewster.
“We were very disappointed when Washington State University’s learning center closed on our campus,” he added.
All interested persons are welcome to attend the meeting. There are some specific academic requirements for each baccalaureate program which City University officials will outline. Scholarships may be available to qualifying area students.
Statistically, Grays Harbor County ranks 38th out of Washington’s 39 counties for the number of bachelors degrees.
Brewster added, “There is a definite need for our area residents to be able to continue their educations but frequently, the ability to leave home for a four-year campus is impossible because of jobs, family obligations and finances.”
For further information about the meeting, contact Grays Harbor College’s Vice President for Instruction Laurie Clary’s office, (360) 538-4009, lclary@ghc.edu.
