Eduardo Ochoa, assistant secretary for postsecondary education, will address St. Mary’s College of Maryland at 8:00 p.m., Friday, Mar. 25, at the school’s academic symposium, “The Liberal Arts—A Public Trust.” Ochoa’s remarks will focus on the Obama administration’s vision for postsecondary education and the role of the liberal arts in that vision.
The event coincides with the inauguration of St. Mary’s new president, Dr. Joseph Urgo, and brings together students, faculty, staff, and alumni of St. Mary’s College as well as invited guests from the community and academia. St. Mary’s College is Maryland’s public honors college.
