Dr. Scott Ralls says in order to truly appreciate everything that goes on at Wake Tech, you have to see it in person. In fact, for Ralls, who assumed his role as president of the school in April 2019, seeing technology in action is what drew him to working in community colleges in the first place. Unfortunately, we're an audio-only podcast, so we have to settle for his descriptions (and then take him up on his offer to visit!) and some astounding statistics on how widespread Wake Tech's reach and connections are in our community. We talked about Wake Tech's programs, its campuses, and what it's planning for the future.

Before the interview we discuss some new restaurant news and citizen engagement--you can comment on the city's budget plans!
