He reminded all that special effort needs to be made to reach the state legislators and communicate the importance of funding higher education and having an educated population in West Virginia. Chairman Berry encouraged all to read the literature distributed by Bluefield State College titled “A Diamond in the Mountains.” IV. Chancellor’s Report Dr. Paul Hill, Chancellor, focused his report on the Higher Education Policy Commission’s statewide attainment goal efforts. He reported that several outreach activities were conducted by staff including GEAR UP Leadership Academy, attended by close to 500 high school students; statewide College Application and Exploration Week, during which nearly seven thousand applications to college were received; Compact-CON Summit, attended by state college and university administrators; and the launch of the 5 Star Challenge, an initiative that calls for the adoption of exemplary standards to support student 6 veterans at each institution. Dr. Hill added that the Commission, in concurrence with the West Virginia Council for Community and Technical College Education, is setting an attainment goal of raising the state’s graduation rate to sixty percent in the next ten years. Chancellor Hill announced that three presidential searches have been finalized and the following new presidents have been selected, pending approval by the Commission: Dr. Jerome Gilbert at Marshall University, Dr. Stephen Greiner at West Liberty University, and Dr. Mary Hendrix at Shepherd University.

B. Advisory Council of Faculty Dr. Roy Nutter, Chair of the Advisory Council of Faculty, briefed the Commission on issues affecting faculty statewide. Dr. Nutter mentioned topics which may need to be addressed by the state Legislature including the restoration of higher education funding and the Public Employees Insurance Agency’s budget cut.

C. Advisory Council of Students Mr. William Bell, Vice Chair of the Advisory Council of Students and a student 7 at WVU at Parkersburg, briefed the Commission on issues of concern to students statewide.

Lancaster Dispatcher Page 2 December 2017 Holiday Travel THE MUTUAL MAGAZINE - FEBRUARY, 1941 With holiday travel at the highest peak in many years, officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad estimated that during the period from December 13 to December 24, inclusive, the movement over all divisions of the system totalled approximately 2,500,000 passengers, an increase of nearly 20% above 1939. Of this number 2,000,000 rode in coaches and 500,000 in Pullman sleeping and parlor cars. The period covered embraced practically all of the Christmas trek “back home” for family reunions and the heavy travel to Florida, as well as soldiers visiting their people on furloughs from the various encampments throughout the country. In handling this Christmas traffic, 1,314 extra sections and special trains were operated, in addition to many extra cars on regularly scheduled trains. The heaviest day was December 20, when 202 extra sections were required. There were 1,621 extra runs of Pullman cars, including 1,230 sleeping and 391 parlor car movements. To accommodate the tremendous demand for reservations to Florida, 12 extra coach trains, handling more than 4,000 passengers, were operated on PRR WARTIME HOLIDAY POSTER - 1942 four days from New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, via the Washington COLLECTION OF THE EDITOR gateway, to leading Florida points. These were in addition to the regular daily luxury coach trains - the Silver Meteor, the Champion and the Vacationer - as well as extremely heavy Pullman travel.

Every day, the Commonwealth gets more than half of its home heating and electric generation from natural gas. About 200,000 homeowners have chosen natural gas as their cost-effective fuel source in the last decade. And the natural gas industry has sharply reduced its emissions over the last 20 years, while driving deep reductions in emissions from electric generation. In short, gas is good for Massachusetts. That’s a message that needs to be reiterated and reinforced, especially as our state continues its robust discussion about the role expanded supplies of gas will and must play as part of an “all of the above” energy solution that includes wind, solar, and other renewables, distributed generation, energy storage, and a leading commitment to energy efficiency. In this “State of the Industry Report,” the Northeast Gas Association and our supporters are collecting and presenting in one place a broad range of information about the benefits gas is delivering to Massachusetts day in and day out.
