Monroe County Community College, in partnership with its student newspaper, The Agora, the Monroe County NAACP and other college partners, is hosting forums for area candidates seeking office in the upcoming November election.
The non-partisan forums will allow those running for contested offices to meet the public and answer questions about their platforms.
The forums are not debates. Each candidate will have allotted time for an introduction and to answer each question.
The candidates and topics slated for each forum will include:
- Oct. 7: County and state representatives.
- Oct. 8: County-wide offices
- Oct. 9: School boards for Bedford Public Schools and Monroe Public Schools, as well as the MCCC Board of Trustees (Not all educational boards will be represented due to time constraints.)
Any candidates, with permission, are welcome to set up tables and pass out material at the forums.
For more information, please contact Gerald McCarty, director of student success, at gmccarty@monroeccc.edu, or at (734) 384-4183.
