The new student support fund will help students who are experiencing unexpected setbacks that may interrupt their education plans.

The gift to establish the endowment comes from alumna Ginny Gray Davis, Virginia Davis’ daughter, and her husband Craig.

The grant comes from the Tennessee Higher Education Commission and will fund the college’s “Rural RNs Rise (R3): Growing Caregivers” project.

The new partnership involves collaborative efforts to prepare individuals for the rapidly growing nuclear workforce in Tennessee through education, training, and two new programs for nuclear technology training.

The $250,000 gift will establish an endowment to support initiatives aimed at enhancing student wellness.
