Every spring, students, faculty, staff, and alumni at WVU Potomac State College are
recognized by their peers, professors, and alumni. The College recently recognized
former Professor Fred Jacoby with the inscription of his name on the Duke Anthony

students hands-on exposure to national media outlets and government institutions.”
