MCC-Longview's Automotive Days 2010

Automotive Days

Despite economic worries, the automotive industry is still revving a full speed. At least that was the message the recruiters and industry experts at the 14th annual MCC-Longview Automotive Days were telling high school students.

Once again MCC-Longview opened the doors to its nationally lauded automotive program to give high school seniors, juniors and vocational/technical students a look at what opportunities lie ahead of them in the coming years in the automotive industry after high school.

MCC-Longview automotive Director Stan Abrahamson answered non-stop questions about Longview's automotive programs as close to 600 students filed through several demonstrations, round-table discussions and tours of the campus.

The two-day event also included a car show that brought some of the regions oldest and most interesting vehicles to the parking lot of the High Technology/Automotive building. The visiting students were then asked to vote for the best cars on display. The voting, according to some, was a bit more difficult than they had anticipated.
