- Our Program held a dinner event in April 2010 to recruit new students and acknowledge the achievements of outstanding MPA students. A panel of distinguished public servants, including Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty, Lackawanna Judge Margaret Bisignani-Moyle, and Lackawanna Commissioner Corey O'Brien addressed the event. All three of these panel members also addressed students previously during MPA courses throughout the semester. They focused discussion on issues important to public service.
