To All MCTC Faculty, Staff and Students:

The Institutional Board of Governors met earlier today and unanimously approved a letter of intent to purchase the real estate located at 2205 Fifth Street, Huntington, WV. This real estate is commonly known as the former Ashland Coal property. It is the intention of the Board that this real estate will serve as the future location of the College. The approval of the Binding Letter of Intent signifies that the Board and the seller have reached agreement on the essential terms of the transaction. A formal Purchase Agreement is now in development and should be completed by the end of the month. The purchase of the property must be approved at the state level, by the West Virginia Council for Community and Technical College Education.

Truly the current time is an exciting one for us as a College and for Community & Technical Colleges in West Virginia. Thank you for your dedication to MCTC.

Sincerely,

Keith J. Cotroneo
President
