PROGRAM
Our speaker this week was Dr.Alfredo Koch, Agribusiness Coordinator and instructor, for Allan Hancock College.
Dr Koch shared information on the Agribusiness programs at Hancock College.  They offer close to 50 courses in Agribusiness, and are continuing to expand their Ag courses.  Enrollment  is around students 240 per semester in the agriculture program.  
 

Students in the Agribusiness program can earn an associate degree or certificate in viticulture, winemaking or wine business, including wine and food pairing. Courses are also appropriate for students who would plan to transfer to a university, improve skills in the industry, or to satisfy continuing education or personal enrichment needs without formally pursuing a degree or certificate.

Courses are flexible; most classes are taught either afternoon, evening, or weekends, allowing students scheduling flexibility. 

Graduates earning the enology/viticulture degree are prepared for upper division work in viticulture and enology, and may choose to transfer to either the University of California, DavisCalifornia State University, FresnoCal Poly, San Luis Obispo; or Sonoma State.

Presidential Notes and Info
Next Week our meeting will be at Allan Hancock College; park near Building O.
