Carroll Community College Celebrates the Inauguration of the College’s Third President


Carroll Community College Celebrates the Inauguration of the College’s Third President

http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2014/10/carroll-community-college-celebrates.html

Westminster, Md., Oct. 28, 2014—Carroll Community College (Carroll) will celebrate the Inauguration of the college’s third president, Dr. James D. Ball, on Friday, Nov. 7, 2014 in the theater. Invited guests include members of the board of trustees, faculty and staff, elected officials and dignitaries, presidents and emissaries from colleges across Maryland, community supporters, and friends of the college. 

“A college president’s Inauguration is a humbling event; and, it is one of great importance to the college,” said  Ball. “Most importantly, this is a day to celebrate the college, our mission, and our students, faculty and staff. It is a day to reaffirm Carroll’s contributions to enhancing the quality of life in our fair county. I am truly proud and honored to be the president of such an exceptional institution of higher learning.”

The event will be marked by formal greetings from internal and external constituents, musical interludes, a formal installation ceremony and remarks by the president. Additional inaugural events prior to and after the ceremony include a celebration by students, as well as visual arts exhibits, theatrical and musical performances, showcases of student work and other specially-designated events on campus.

Ball became president on July 1, 2014. He has over thirty years of progressively responsible experience in the community college setting, including 18 years as a senior level executive. He has extensive academic and administrative background at Carroll. Ball is the former vice president of Academic and Student Affairs and dean of the faculty at Carroll, a position he held since 1999. His expertise includes academic and student affairs administration, curriculum development, technology planning and integration, faculty and staff development, strategic planning, budget development/administration, facilities planning and development, fundraising, accreditation processes and policy development.

Prior to joining Carroll in 1999, Ball was vice president of student services at Howard Community College in Columbia, Md. He is also a former assistant vice president and dean of instruction at Howard, as well as director of adult and evening services and assistant professor of psychology there. Ball is also a former adjunct professor at the Morgan State University Doctoral Program in Community College Leadership. Ball holds an Ed.D in Higher Education Administration from Virginia Polytechnic and State University and a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Higher Education Administration from the same university. He has an M.Ed. in Counseling and Student Services/Psychology and a BS in Education with a minor in psychology from North Texas State University (now University of North Texas).


“I look forward to the challenges and successes that lie ahead for Carroll as higher education continues to evolve and meet the needs of students from all backgrounds and walks of life,” said Ball.

Flyer, information and entry form for the Easter 5K Run to the Cross April 19, 2014 at Taylorsville United Methodist Church

Flyer, information and entry form for the Easter 5K Run to the Cross April 19, 2014 at Taylorsville United Methodist Church


According to information from the Taylorsville United Methodist Church website, the first ever ‘Run to the Cross’ will take place this Saturday in Taylorsville, Carroll County, Maryland.

If you are looking to get outside after a long-cold winter of being cooped-up inside, this is a great family event for everyone to enjoy – and celebrate spring and Easter. And oh, was it mentioned that there will also be great food available - pulled pork sandwiches. And all the proceeds go to several good causes…

The 5 K run will go from South Carroll High School to Taylorsville United Methodist Church on Saturday, April 19, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. (TUMC). (You can run this or walk this 5 K.)

This 5 K run will travel west on Route 26, cross Route 27 (with State Police help) and travel south on Route 27 to TUMC.

At the end of the race enjoy live music, pulled pork sandwiches (free for runners) and the final awards ceremony.

This run is a joint venture brought to you by TUMC and SCHS’s Fellowship of Christian Athletes. (FCA)

Proceeds will be given to both the FCA and the No More Malaria Campaign. (Every 60 seconds a child dies in Africa of Malaria. This campaign has already cut that number in half, we want to stop deaths from malaria.) Your entry fee will be tax deductible.

There are two ways to register: One is to download the run entry form, fill it out, and mail it back to TUMC along with a check. Please register by April 6th. The registration fee is $10 for students; $15 for SCHS Alum; and $20 for adults.

The second way to register is to click below. Make sure you have a credit card ready and you can register totally on line.

Note there is a 2-4 dollar increase to offset on-line costs.
