President's Message

As you receive this edition of ETSU Today, the campus of East Tennessee State University is a wonderland of color. Spring in East Tennessee is unforgettable, and our campus abounds with pink and white dogwood blossoms and brilliant redbuds that are so gorgeous they almost take your breath away. I believe that a university campus should offer something beautiful around every corner and that environment is clearly evident at ETSU in the spring. One of my responsibilities as President is to ensure that we accentuate that natural beauty and give our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community more opportunities to slow down and enjoy all that our campus has to offer. On the cover of this magazine, for example, you will find a photograph of Veterans Memorial Lawn, our newly created green space located in the heart of the campus. Stepping into that area, you immediately feel a sense of calm. The lawn is a place for reading, reflection, and simply enjoying the day, as the fascinating life of a university surrounds you. In the months and years ahead, you will be hearing and reading more about our efforts to make our university an even more inviting place. From new facilities that provide a home for the arts, to enhancements in our student center, we are actively engaged in efforts to enrich our great university. In this modern and often frenetic world, as we are tugged constantly by technology, it is vital that we as educators preserve and protect the sense of serenity that universities uniquely offer. Come spend time with us and reconnect with your ETSU. Best wishes, Godspeed, and go Bucs! - Brian Noland, President
