Favorite Thing: The banners on the light standards proclaim that this is "America's Hometown". But there are many places that claim this honor (Charles City, Iowa; Cordell, Oklahoma; Muncie, Indiana; and Hannibel, Missouri among others)- East Liverpool is not the only one.
Except for the banners, the only reference I find to the title is on the web page of the Ohio Valley College of Technology which says
"Welcome to one of America's best technology schools located in America's "home town", East Liverpool Ohio.
"The Ohio Valley College of Technology was founded 1886 in East Liverpool, Ohio by John Sant.
"The mission of the college is to allow our students to grow personally and professionally so the student is highly employable after graduation. In pursuit of educational objectives, a solid base of academic preparation and practical training is provided. Ohio Valley College of Technology recognizes and respects the rights and the goals of each student and the College strives to meet the needs of each student.
"The goals of OVCT are a reflection of its history combined with the reality of today's changing trends and technologies. In this mode, students are provided with up-to-date skills and training to meet today's challenging needs in business, industry and government."
