Wrapping up the week with @CollegeSystemTN annual student affairs in-service @NashvilleState. Opening with a presentation on a policy analysis done on Tennessee by the National Skills Coalition.

Spent yesterday with @CollegeSystemTN @tncis students in Sakura, Japan. Great professional development opportunity for presidents and faculty this week to see first hand what our students are experiencing in study abroad.

We are mid-week through the Japan Administrative Program and traveled to Nissan's training facility in Youkahama yesterday. This is a great @CollegeSystemTN group to travel with and learn from!

The @CollegeSystemTN study abroad program to Japan is one of the most popular for students. I got a chance to spend time with 40 students today in Tokyo as part of the administrative program this week. @tncis

It's graduation season! My favorite part of my job @CollegeSystemTN is being on our campuses to celebrate! Last two days I was the Commencement Speaker at Walters State for @tonymiksa final @WaltersState graduation as president and was able to speak @ps Veteran recognition.
