Robinson Student
Career Center Ground Breaking Ceremony
Edison State Community College enjoyed a successful ground breaking
ceremony for the Robinson Student Career Center on Thursday, July 26,
2018. Over 120 individuals were in attendance to witness President of
Edison State, Doreen Larson, Thom and Pat Robinson and multiple
representatives and community leaders break ground for the new center
at Edison State. The new addition will be integrated onto the west hall
building of the college and will serve as a catalyst for students by
helping to bridge the gap in the employment process.
Special thanks to Thom and Pat Robinson for their continued support of
Edison State and for making the vision of the Robinson Student Career
Center a reality. The Robinsons have been involved for many years in
the advancement and promotion of higher education.
Speakers at the event included Ben Thaeler, Deputy District Director
from Representative Warren Davidson’s Office; Bill Beagle, State
Senator; Steve Huffman, State Representative; Gary Cates, Senior Vice
Chancellor of the Ohio Department of Higher Education; Tom Fernandez,
Executive Vice President of SHP Leading Design; Tom Milligan, Chairman
of the Edison State Community College Board of Trustees and Stan Evans,
Past Chairman of The Edison Foundation.
Through detailed planning and strategic positioning, the Robinson
Student Career Center will come to fruition in the fall of 2019 and
will become a beacon for student career development in the future. This
project is in addition to the opening of the new Edison State Troy
campus, which will be opening Jan. 2019, and have a focus on the allied
health field.
