U. S. Rep. Steve Chabot paid a visit to Cincinnati State recently to discuss workforce development, job training and other issues with President O’dell M. Owens (far right), other school leaders and several of the college’s industry partners.

During his visit Congressman Chabot met two high school students, Anastasia Runck, from Norwood, left, and Merccedyz Davidson, from Mt. Healthy, who are participating in an Upward Bound college readiness program this summer at Cincinnati State. Both students told Rep. Chabot they hope to gain admission to a service academy – Anastasia to The Citadel in Charleston, S.C., Merccedyz to the U.S. Naval Academy.
