GREENFIELD Greenfield Community College is launching “Candor with Prez Yves,” a biweekly online conversation series hosted by GCC President Yves Salomon-Fernández that will feature guests from Western Massachusetts and beyond.
Salomon-Fernández said she was inspired to create “Candor with Prez Yves” by the wealth of extraordinary leaders and activists engaged in crucial work locally and throughout the state.
“There’s so much that we can be sharing during this time, that we can be celebrating, and there are challenges that we are all facing,” she said in a GCC press release. “We are finding ways that work, and we’re also learning a lot through those struggles. I thought it would be a great opportunity to engage these thoughtful leaders and action-oriented leaders in sharing some of those.”
