Before Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama arrived for a forum at Messiah College, the in-plant had to do a ton of printing.

The school’s 11-employee in-plant, College Press, spent 60 hours of overtime to take care of behind-the-scenes printing work leading up to the forum, which hosted presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

“We were very disappointed when Senator [John] McCain was unable to attend due to what his campaign cited as scheduling conflicts,” says Production Manager Carole Hutchison. “He has a standing invitation from President Kim S. Phipps to visit Messiah and speak to the students, faculty and staff whenever he is able. We feel fortunate to have such a forward-thinking person in President Phipps, who was able to arrange for this event, and to have been able to play a small part in this historical evening.”
