Statement of
Purpose:
The Greeneville/Greene County Center for Higher Education serves as an extension
of the main campus in Morristown offering both credit and non-credit courses to
the citizens of Greeneville, Greene County and portions of upper East Tennessee.
The Center allows students who are geographically remote from the central campus
to take classes closer to their homes.
The campus is located at 215 North College Street in downtown Greeneville.
Course offerings include most courses in the General Education core and
additional technical education courses for most degree and certificate programs.
A typical student would be required to complete some classes on the main campus
before graduation. The facility was made available through the generous efforts
of the governments of Greene County and the City of Greeneville, along with the
Walters State Foundation.
The facility includes general education classrooms, administrative offices,
computer, chemistry and biology laboratories, student lounge areas, and media
center. In addition, the center is home for the
Regional Police Academy and Respiratory Care program. East Tennessee State
University offers classes in the Walters State facility. This program
serves the entire ten county service area.
Over 1000 credit students are enrolled at the Greeneville Center each semester.
Eighteen full-time faculty/staff members are located at the center with
additional faculty traveling from Morristown to the center. Additionally, over
30 adjunct faculty teach at the center each semester. The main telephone
extension is 423-798-7940.
