Announcement of Merger
On July 23, 2021, a meeting was held in Room 122 of the B&E Building on the campus of USCA to publicly announce the merger of the Academy of Lifelong Learning and the McGrath Computer Learning Center to form the Center for Lifelong Learning. About 30 volunteers, USCA staff, and the media attended.
Remarks were made by Paul Crook, Executive Director of the Etherredge Center and External Programs; Dr. Daniel Heimmermann, Chancellor of USCA; Dr. Daren Timmons, Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs; Wayne Rickman, Chairperson of McGrath Computer Learning Center, Inc.; Harriet Haynes, President of the Academy for Lifelong Learning; and Karen Edgington, former Director of External Programs, whose leadership led to the merger of the two organizations long associated with USCA Continuing Education.
The remarks were followed by formally signing the merger agreement. The signers are shown in the picture below.
