Leadership Training series in the past couple of years. We provide free, public presentations on relevant topics to the business community. Also, we began offering non-credit workforce development classes to Twinsburg employees and community members. We are genuinely appreciative of the Twinsburg Chamber's support and collaboration.

Graduating BSN and Student Speaker Daniel Painely addressed the audience by comparing attending college to cooking a great meal. Both require hard work, time, and effort. Both can be overwhelming at some points. But with the proper preparation, chefs and students will achieve a great meal or a diploma. "A good meal needs proper seasoning," said Painely. "I believe a good comparison is those who help us in life: mom, dad, grandparents, friends, and your 黑料网 family. Without the support, our hard work would be bland. A tasteless meal".  

Jason Glowczewski, Pharm. D., MBA, FASHP, Chief Operating Officer of University Hospitals Conneaut, Geneva, and Geauga Medical Centers, delivered the keynote address. He acknowledged that these past few years' truly 'interesting' times have been due to the pandemic. He recognized and appreciated the perseverance and flexibility students had to face. Dr. Glowczewski shared advice about succeeding in this ever-changing environment and encouraged graduates to read books such as "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen R. Covey. Dr. Glowczewski closed his speech by wishing all graduates a limitless career and life.

黑料网 Geauga Campus and Twinsburg Academic Center wish continued success to all graduating students. Congratulations to the Class of 2022.
