It's integral to our future to help educate and inspire the next generation with this exciting and very educational speaker series," said Roseann Harrington, Vice President of Marketing, Communication and Community Relations at OUC - The Reliable One. "We are proud to help make this possible and hope that perhaps a student may see this and take genuine interest in a STEM-related field of study."
"We have a commitment to reach diverse audiences through variety in our programming, aiming to provide Arts for Every Life," said Kathy Ramsberger, president and CEO of the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. "The Speaker Series is another type of programming to achieve that goal."
