Greg Johnson began his new job at MVC on October 1. As he adjusts to his new position and this city, he works zealously at his desk, producing his big smile and widening his characteristic mustache. He strives to enrich his experience at MVC.
Johnson is impressed with MVC's increasing number of students in recent years. He shows great ardor for helping MVC have more effective development. He also revealed his enthusiasm for helping MVC realize a profit, in order for investment to take place in physical plant and equipment. Unlike state-sponsored universities, it is sometimes hard to provide new equipment or convenient college systems.
"MVC has invested in a dorm telephone line system, available to each room and has built new apartments, among other campus improvements in recent years," Johnson said.
"My goal is to bring more business perspective to the financial aspects of the college," Johnson said, "offer new ideas, help the college continue to grow, and help provide the best education possible to the students."
