In episode 117 of the TigerTalk podcast presented by Northeast Mississippi Community College, host Will Kollmeyer welcomes Northeast president, Dr. Ricky G. Ford, to the podcast as Kollmeyer and Ford sit down to discuss what is happening at the college. In this week's update, Dr. Ford updates listeners with a positive message about uplifting each other in this uncertain time. In addition to trying to be as positive as possible, Ford goes over some of the guidelines for campus and how administrators have come up with the plans for reopening the campus. Ford talks about the three things that will help limit the coronavirus 1) distancing oneself from large groups, 2) sanitation procedures, and 3) wearing a mask while in public. Ford also addresses the need for people to be as flexible as possible saying that the plans could change in an afternoon, a day, or as quickly as an hour. In closing, Ford talks about the upcoming football season and the plans for the band along with discussing the options if schools have to close again due to another outbreak. Don’t forget that Northeast is the second-ranked community college in the nation for receiving an online education, so if you or someone you know is looking to further their education during the summer or fall semesters, Northeast has a place for you.
