After 22 years at Greater Columbus Learning Center (GCLC), our current director, Dr. Ellie Graham is retiring. As of June 30th, 2010, Dr. Graham will end her long tenure with GCLC and begin a new personal adventure called retirement. Dr. Graham is admired and respected by her colleagues and peers for her passion for adult education. To Graham, GCLC is not just a place to improve educational skils, it is an opportunity for adults to improve their future.
Dr. Graham has worked at GCLC since it first opened its doors in 1988. Graham's first duties were as the Curriculum coordinator and later moved to Director. Graham has guided GCLC as it moved from a small room in the Education department of Mississippi University for Women to several rooms and offices in Parkinson Hall at MUW and finally to its own building currently located at 612 Military Road. During Dr. Graham's tenure, GCLC has been visited by governors, congressmen and business leaders, all of whom praised GCLC and its leadership for the innovative approaches they use in meeting the educational needs of adults. She has been a tireless supporter for adult education in her community, state and nationally and has helped lobby local, state and federal leaders for money to help keep needed programs like GCLC open and free.
July 1st, 2010, Graham will hand over the reigns to a new director and will continue to assist GCLC during this transitional period.
