Madey Viera
 

Madey Viera may only be a sophomore in college, but she knows that she needs to know something about China if she is going to succeed in international business when she graduates.
 
For Madey, 18, there is no better way to learn about China than to see it for herself.
 
“I want to learn the language and meet the people,” she said. Click here to read more.

Miss a Lecture?

 
In what was arguably our best season ever?  Not to worry.  You can now hear over 30 lectures, right in your own home, on the Council’s new Website.  Just follow a few simple instructions.

  1. Turn on your computer and its speakers.
  2. Go to your internet portal (AOL, Comcast, Internet Explorer, etc.) .
  3. Enter our website – www.ncwa-fl.org.
  4. Scroll down the left hand column to WGCU and click on it.
  5. The WGCU web site home page will be displayed. Simply click on 'programs' at the top of the page; the 'Local WGCU Programs' page will be displayed.
  6. Scroll down to the 'Radio' section; click on 'Lecture Series'. 
  7. On the 'Lecture Series' page, click on the 'listen audio' symbol next to the lecture of your choice.
  8. Adjust the sound level of the computer’s speaker which best suits you.
 
The technicians tell me the quality of the refined recording is better than that the live presentation in the auditorium.  So sit back and enjoy, or get up and do some multi tasking.
 
 
Dan Bumstead, President
