MSU-Meridian Head of Campus panelist in Ochsner Rush workforce update

MSU-Meridian was honored to host Ochsner Rush’s Power of One event at the MSU Riley Center. Dr. Terry Dale Cruse participated in a panel discussion entitled Connecting to Our Workforce.

“We share your mission of taking care of what matters in our community, and we’re expanding health sciences programs with your workforce needs in mind,” Cruse said to more than 800 Ochsner Rush employees attending the event. He complemented Ochsner on investments made in the community and cited frequent strategic conversations with local and corporate leaders, including Chief Executive Officer Pete November who visited MSU-Meridian this week.
