Congrats to the Livingston folks for coming in second in the education division of the annual Christmas Parade.

Wilson County Land for New Campus Finalized
![]() |
The land closing: L to R. Rita Anderson, realtor; Beth Carpenter; Sandra McFarland; Susan Redmond (Sandra and Susan are mother and daughter and donors of part of the property) and Dr. Faulkner. |
We have submitted a capital project
request to the Tennessee Board of Regents system office for the construction of
the building. They in turn have submitted the request to the Tennessee
Higher Education Commission (THEC). THEC did not include our project in
their budget recommendation to the Governor although the Governor and/or the
Legislature could decide to include the project in next year’s appropriations.
The Tennessean had this story about the sale.
Vol State in the News
Today and tomorrow is your last opportunity to see the craft artists exhibit at the Vol State Art Gallery in SRB. The Hendersonville Standard had this story.
We're gearing up for spring semester, which starts January 21. A reminder to encourage people who don't already have a college degree to apply for TN Reconnect to take classes in the spring. The Gallatin News has this story.
