a letter from the Co-chairs As school starts each year, we are reminded of new beginnings. New beginnings are exciting because they offer hope for the best that’s yet to come. That is why we’re inviting our community to get to know Tennessee Wesleyan a little better this year. We’ve launched a plan that will not only transform the college, but also our community. We’re calling it the Proud Heritage, Strong Future Campaign. The following pages will tell more in detail, but we want to share with you directly why we’re confident in the future of our community because of the work of Tennessee Wesleyan. Because TWC is here, $50 to $60 million is brought into this community each year. Could you imagine what it would mean if enrollment was doubled? We’ll tell you. $100-$130 million changes the landscape of our local economy. It means businesses grow, new businesses want to come here, our schools are better, and our community is transformed into a place where people want to stay and families can afford a quality of life they never imagined. Doubling enrollment isn’t something we’re just hoping for; it’s something we’re planning for. Through the leadership of Dr. Knowles, our faculty, staff, and coaches, we’re moving this ship in the right direction, not just for the college, but for the benefit of everyone who lives here. The people who helped us determine what we could raise for this campaign never believed we could be this far in our goals before we even announced our plans to the public, but our progress is proof of our potential for greatness. The potential for the Athens community is directly related to the success of Tennessee Wesleyan. The potential of our businesses is tied to Tennessee Wesleyan—we employ several graduates of the college, and we can tell you they are some of the brightest people we know. They’re prepared and talented people who want to make a difference. They embody the spirit of a servant leader, and those are the kind of people we want on our team, to be our neighbors, and to stay here in this community. Tennessee Wesleyan’s potential is tied to the people in this community who want to do their part for a better future. How many times does a person get the opportunity in their lifetime to transform a life, to transform a community, to give to a cause that will have lasting impact for generations? Greatness is waiting. Will you join us? Your Neighbors, Shirley S. Woodcock, ‘78 Co-Chair, Proud Heritage, Strong Future Campaign Executive Vice President, Sweetwater Valley Oil Co. Allen F.
