To me, MCTC is a place where families find the support and educational opportunities to better their lives by receiving the skills and credentials to enter into high paying careers or four-year institutions.

-Juston Pate (MC)

I can remember passing MCTC as we drove into Maysville for the first time thinking how great it would be to work with college students. Little did I know that within a few years I would actually be in that very position. It was a privilege to work with students, and I hope that, in some small way, I helped them in their journey to achieve great things. I was blessed to work with wonderful people who made my job easier

-Linda Cook (MC retired)

Thirty years have come and gone since I first walked through the doors of Maysville Community and Technical College. I’ve witnessed the addition of 3 new buildings plus one more soon to begin, seen many changes in curriculum, and worked with countless students as well as dozens of fantastic co-workers. Through the years I’ve seen many of those students and it’s always rewarding to learn of their success stories. Maybe . . . just maybe . . . I have played a small part in that.

-Penny Hickman (MC)

MCTC means “hope” for a brighter tomorrow! We provide opportunities that can make a difference in the lives of our students and the future of our communities.

To me, MCTC means family.  We all genuinely care about and appreciate each other.  As I served on the presidential search, all the candidates stated that it’s so apparent that we enjoy working here and working together.

Maysville Community and Technical College “literally” changed my life.  My education has opened so many doors for me.  I am very thankful to the instructors who taught me to believe in myself.

-Sherry Vice (MC)

I am thankful to Maysville Community and Technical College for providing me the opportunity to earn a degree and pursue a career.  The caring attitude of the College gave me the encouragement to start as a work study and to continue on into my present job responsibilities where I have a chance to assist other students facing similar challenges.  I am proud to work for an organization where there is an opportunity to change lives!

-Patricia Massie (MC)

MCC provided me with a job for 19 years, and I finished my degree there having started it     at UK.  My grandson, Eric Brannen, began his college education at MCC and is now Quality Control Engineer at Mitzubishi, and his wife Carrie is a Radiology Tech. at Meadowview Reg Hospital… having started at MCC.  Great school close to home!

-Nancy Brannen (MCC Retiree)

The college offered me the chance to be the first member of my family to obtain a college education.   It was a stepping stone for me to grow as a person and gain self confidence and in deciding upon a career in Nursing.  The college has made a wonderful impact on our community as evidenced by it’s  continued growth.

To me MCTC means friendship and fellowship. It means hospitality and humility. It's a place where you always feel welcome and they treat you like family. MCTC means being close to home and being with people I love. It started me on my career path and allowed me to become a better person. Thank you for everything!

The faculty and staff at Maysville Community Technical College are committed to providing students, like myself, with an environment where they feel they belong. The friendships I have made and the lessons I have learned within those walls will not soon be forgotten. MCTC is a place where I will always feel welcome.

MCTC has given me the opportunity to change student lives in ways I never dreamed possible.  Being able to watch each student grow through their course work and seeing the smiles on their faces at graduation is such an uplifting experience for me.  Each student has touched my life in so many different ways, and for that, I will always be grateful.
