At Mass Vax Site, Dr. Pollard Says Montgomery College ‘Honored’ to Serve Community

Montgomery College President Dr. DeRionne Pollard spoke a day ahead of MC’s Germantown campus launching as a state-run mass vaccination clinic.

Pollard said that the college was “honored” to serve its community.

“There are three things every [community] in our nation needs right now — every community, every town across the nation: one is vaccines, second is jobs for vulnerable populations, and third is a skilled labor force. The thing I know for sure, there is one place in the country you can get all three — and that is at your local community college.”

By the end of April, there will be a total of 13 state-run clinics across Maryland.

Marylanders 16 and up are eligible to preregister to receive the vaccine at state-run vaccination clinics.
