2021-2022 Speakers
October 15, 2021
Guest Speaker, Michael W. Collins shared his story beginning at a community college, a first-generation college graduate and about the difference he is making.
As a high school drop out, along with a multitude of other social and financial obstacles, I believe I can relate to those currently stuck in today's poverty trap, crime-ridden neighborhoods, poor schools, with little to no productive mentoring programs. By the time I was in my twenties, two of my six closest neighborhood friends were in jail or dead.
I define equity as income disparity and/or social disparity and I have had my own experience with both. I strive to promote equity through targeting the non-traditional student and bypassing what may seem to be the impossible to make a positive impact on teenagers who find themselves in an "at-risk" situation.
In order to survive and thrive, I intentionally choose a different direction than my friends. I am a first-generation college graduate, have served as a military officer, graduated from law school and became a licensed attorney, earned an MBA, and have started several successful financial businesses. So, how did I do it? Why me? I'm here to tell you my story and encourage you to forge your own path to success.

Deb Poese, Professor, Mathematics; Director, Teacher Education Partnerships, Montgomery College, MD
Mathematics Content for Elementary and Early Childhood Educators
Maryland's community college Associate of Arts in Teaching programs for Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education were recently updated to reflect current standards. In a collaborative effort, two-year and four-year faculty created a framework for the mathematics content courses which are part of this degree in alignment with the CAEP standards and the recommendations of Mathematics Education of Teachers II (Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences, 2012). After completion of the outcomes and indicators document, the project expanded to provide a resource website and an online Community of Practice to support faculty as they develop pedagogical content knowledge in their students.
