Virginia Business College Set to Open on Campus of former Virginia Intermont College

 

Virginia Business College is a new nonprofit higher education institution that will begin offering classes in February. VBC is located on the campus of the former Virginia Intermont College in Bristol, VA. 

You can read more in "Virginia Business College receives state’s approval" by David McGee and published by the Bristol Herald Courier on January 22, 2021. 

It is interesting to note that McGee provided extensive coverage of Virginia Intermont's struggle and ultimate closure during 2014. He was recognized by his peers with a first-place award from the Tennessee Press Association in the Best Education Reporting in 2015. An earlier College History Garden post provides more information on the award and links to a number of McGee's articles, "Reporter Receives Award for Reporting on Closure of Virginia Intermont College."
