Dr. Margaret Ford Fisher is the president of Houston Community College – Northeast. 
While witnessing happy graduates and their families at a commencement program, Fisher realized “the community college was to be a significant part of my life because of the impact that it has in transforming lives.”
Fisher continues to be motivated by “the ability to think and to make my thoughts become reality.”
Citing honesty, knowledge and being articulate as three values that propelled her success, Fisher advises other women “to prepare academically, spiritually, and physically,” she says.
“You will find, at some point along the journey, that all are absolutely essential to keep fit for the job.” –zondra hughes
