Free MVILR Talk With Nancy Ketz at MVCC Rome, Tue., Nov. 10: 'The Road Less Traveled'

A free, no-sign-up hour of stories about local people who got where they are the unusual way, told by an award-winning area educator.
Nancy Ketz gives a free talk, "The Road Less Traveled: Citizens Who Took an Unconventional Path to Success," on Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, from 10:45 to 11:45 a.m. in the Festine Auditorium at MVCC's Rome Campus, 1101 Floyd Ave. No reservation is needed, according to the Utica Phoenix.
It's part of the Mohawk Valley Institute for Learning in Retirement's Speaker Series and open to the public, members or not. Ketz is an award-winning educator and a past YWCA Salute and Women of Distinction honoree.
