- Dr. Griffith: Wednesday, October 8, 9–10 a.m. Watch the Zoom
All sessions will take place in the Sealy Auditorium (SP2/105) and will be streamed on Zoom.
Community feedback will help the Virginia Community College System choose the next president. The deadline to weigh in is noon on Friday, October 10.
Germanna serves the City of Fredericksburg and counties including Stafford, Spotsylvania, and King George.
