Outstanding Customer Service Award While many organizations are downsizing during a difficult economy, Mineral Area College has expanded programs and opportunities. Grants awarded to the college provide the funds for Photo courtesy of Sarah Haas HAZWOPER and Soil Remediation training, a new online nursing program and exciting opportunities in Pharmacy and Industrial Maintenance through MO HealthWins. MAC's Grant Writer, Pam Watkins has been instrumental in working with other MAC employees, researching and writing grants to help make these programs possible on our campus.
