Culinary Instruction During COVID Morehead City, N.C. (December 18, 2020) – In March when the Coronavirus brought all of North Carolina and much of the United States to a standstill, it was clear that the culinary and hospitality businesses would be impacted. Like the hospitality businesses, educating future hospitality and culinary arts workers was also impacted as the result of COVID. Instructors had to rethink the curriculum and even the physical way they taught their students. Now, instructors are teaching their students in a COVID-safe environment — taking temperatures at the door, wearing masks and having the students remain six-feet apart in the kitchens and classrooms.

Celebrate Small Business Saturday in the Race to Shop Local Morehead City, N.C. (November 24, 2020) – November 28, 2020, is Small Business Saturday. In a typical year, the Small Business Center at Carteret Community College would celebrate Small Business Saturday by hosting Neighborhood Champion events for local businesses to provide the business owners with materials to promote #ShopSmall. However, 2020 is not a typical year due to the Coronavirus. The staff at the Small Business Center had to rethink how to celebrate Small Business Saturday. This year, rather than neighborhood events, the Small Business Center will host The Race to Shop Local on November 28.

Alli Lindenberg/EducationNC[/caption] School was hard for Odin Bright. A junior at Croatan High School, Bright struggled with grades and a general disinterest in school.
