The Prince William County Office of Virginia Cooperative Extension will share its programs and services with Ms. Peggy Meszaros, provost and senior vice president of Virginia Tech, as she tours the area on Wednesday, October 29. On the bus trip to and from the County, Extension staff will brief Ms. Meszaros about the many community-oriented programs which they provide to the area.
Extension is a unique educational partnership funded by local, state and federal governments.
Programs are focused on the needs of the people in individual communities. The tour is part of an initiative by Ms. Meszaros to visit all six Virginia Extension districts and many of the 107 local offices in the next year. The visits are a way to strengthen the links between Virginia Tech and the local communities.
