WHEELING The West Virginia Northern Community College Faculty Assembly added its voice backing WVNCC President Daniel Mosser in his stance against the memorandum of understanding between the City of Wheeling and Bluefield State College.
The group released a letter addressed to the city both supporting Mosser and asking the city to reconsider the memorandum.
The MOU is a non-binding agreement that allows BSC to explore moving into one of the buildings at the campus of the former Ohio Valley Medical Center. At a city council meeting, Mosser excoriated council members about the agreement, and was joined by Wheeling University Ginny Favede and West Liberty University President W. Franklin Evans that night in voicing their opposition to the MOU.

Who is that masked nurse? Intensive-care patients in Manhattan likely had no idea their care was being provided by Jenny Sams, a former Ohio Valley Medical Center BSN who lives locally but works in far-flung hospitals. Sams spent more than two months working in New York City in spring 2020, during the height of that cityâs COVID outbreak. She is one of a growing legion of workers who donât live and work in the same place.
WHEELING Now that COVID has kicked down the door separating work and home, Wheeling and West Virginia officials are hoping population growth will walk right in like it owns the place. A Nomadland on the flipside, if you will.
