The Founding Years with Joe Cosand

Tonight we are celebrating success… …not only the success of our 2014 graduates… …but also the success of more than 1.2 million students who have attended St. Louis Community College over the last 52 years—many of whom may be here tonight in this arena—as the parents, spouses and relatives of our current graduates.

Michaelis Welcome Rick Stream Reception

Now, being from Texas, I was a little skeptical of that claim. You know, in Texas, tales are always a little taller than the reality. We come from a big land with big dreams and even bigger bragging rights. So forgive me if you good folks from Missouri had to “show me” the truth about these hard-working legislators in the “show-me” state.

Casey is such an energetic and active participant in the college that it’s hard to believe he’s only been here for five years. He is truly one of our best community ambassadors…

How often can you say that you had snow, tornadoes, hail and 65 degree weather in one week? How do you ever know what to wear? Seriously, I hope it’s not snowing by the time we leave tonight.

Johnson 30 & Over Dinner Comments

Sarah is the gatekeeper for the business office manager so it’s up to her if you get in to see the boss. I always try to be nice to her so she won’t move money out of my budget or cancel any of my trips.

Hess Holiday Comments 2012

Ho, ho, ho, Forest Parkers…you’ve probably figured out that I am not there today at our annual holiday party. What did you say? How could I miss our holiday party?

Morris Johnson Memorial Tribute

“It was not uncommon to see him surrounded by students, out in the hallways, enjoying their company. He often kidded me when I was planning receptions, not to forget the red Kool Aid!”
