“Many thanks to Coterra for its generous donation in support of Penn College Dual Enrollment and our program partners,” said President Michael J. Reed. “Earning college credit for courses taken in high schools and career and technology centers builds students’ confidence and allows them – and their families – to save time and money. Ultimately, the experience propels students on the path toward earning a college degree and finding secure employment.”
“Coterra believes that education is the cornerstone of developing the future workforce,” said George Stark, director of external affairs. “By utilizing the EITC program, we have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on these students’ lives.”
“We are most grateful to Coterra for this contribution benefiting our Penn College Dual Enrollment partners,” said Randy J. Zangara, dean of college transitions and student success. “Through this program, students become better prepared for the college experience and gain a fuller understanding of business and industry needs. According to the U.S. Department of Education, such students are also more likely to complete high school, enroll at a postsecondary institution, achieve a higher GPA and finish their degree programs on time.”
