About the President Councilman Chris Woodhull and Rev. R. Christopher Cairns Added to Trustee Board The Knoxville College Board of Trustees has unanimously selected Dr. Horace A. Judson, former president of Grambling State University and Plattsburgh State University of New York, as interim president, giving the only historically black college in East Tennessee its first full-time leader in five years. “The Trustees are elated that Dr. Judson has agreed to serve as interim president of Knoxville College,” said Board Chair George E. Curry. “He has established an outstanding record as a visionary, as an innovator and as a proficient fundraiser while serving as president of two very different universities.” “I realize this is a challenging assignment,” Dr. Judson said. “But I am convinced that if all segments of the Knoxville Community pull together, we can continue to provide educational opportunities for thousands of students who might not otherwise attend college.”
The College provides various public services for the improvement of the community and promotes concerned citizenship among its constituents. Knoxville College provides its students, regardless of their backgrounds, a distinctive opportunity for educational achievement.
