Our ongoing “Coffee With…” video series features Upstate business executives sharing insights about their business, the industry in which they work and the community in which they live. Recently, our publisher Rick Jenkins had coffee with…Krista Newkirk, the president of Converse College, soon to be Converse University. Converse College, located in Spartanburg, was founded in 1889 as an all-women's college. Now, a co-educational institution, the school offers a wide variety of programs for business executives, including doctorate and master’s degrees, as well as continuing education options for those still pursuing an undergrad degree. Check out the conversation below and find out why Krista and Rick discuss the Eiffel Tower and the invention of the jukebox. Enjoy! |
