DR. CHARLENE R. NUNLEY
PRESIDENT, MONTGOMERY COLLEGE
On the Montgomery County Council’s Approval
Of the FY 2006 County Operating Budget
We applaud and want to thank the County Council for its strong support of Montgomery College in the budget package they have crafted. We’re so fortunate to have elected officials in Montgomery County who truly value education and make sound investments in our county’s future. This budget enables us to add much-needed faculty to help us keep pace with the rapid growth we are seeing, as a result of more county students coming to Montgomery College to begin their higher education. # # #
