CU's President Carter to speak at first chapel of semester By Joan C. McKinney, director, Office of University Communications Campbellsville, KY - Dr. Michael V. Carter, president of Campbellsville University, will be the first speaker at the university's chapel at 9amCT/10amET Wednesday, Aug. 21, 2019 at Ransdell Chapel, 401 N. Hoskins Ave., Campbellsville, Ky. Chapel services are free and open to the public, a time designated to provide opportunities for corporate worship and exposure through a variety of informative speakers and presentations. Carter is in his 21st year as president of Campbellsville University, a position he has held since 1999. He was provost and vice president for academic affairs, as well as professor of sociology, at Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, Tenn., from 1985 until he became president of CU. During Carter's tenure at CU, the institution has experienced significant growth in student enrollment, number and quality of academic programs and fundraising success, along with enhanced campus facilities and aesthetics. Under Carter's leadership, Campbellsville University has more than 12,000 students both on the main and regional centers and online. The university has Kentucky based off-campus centers in Louisville, Harrodsburg, Somerset, Hodgenville and Liberty with instructional sites in Elizabethtown, Owensboro and Summersville. Out-of-state centers include two in California at Los Angeles and Lathrop, located in the San Francisco Bay region. The university offers more than 100 programs of study including Ph.D., master, baccalaureate, associate, pre-professional and certification programs. U.S. News & World Report has continued to rank Campbellsville University as a top regional university in the south. One of the real strengths of Carter's tenure has been the strong leadership of the Board of Trustees. A series of dedicated Board chairs and the spirit of unity among the trustees has been instrumental in the university's progress. Carter has developed a strong leadership team and has emphasized a spirit of cooperation and consensus among faculty, staff, coaches and the entire campus community. "Vision 2025--Preparing Christian Servant Leaders" is the document that becomes the blueprint for the continued growth and development of Campbellsville University. Vision 2025 reflects Carter's dream for the ongoing advancement of Christian higher education at CU and the faculty, staff and coaches' commitment to preparing Christian servant leaders for the 21st century. Carter is a 1976 graduate of Marshall University where he received his bachelor of arts degree. In 1979, he received his master of arts degree, also from Marshall. He did additional graduate study at Andover-Newton Theological School in Newton Centre, Mass. He received his Ph.D. from Ohio State University in 1984. His dissertation was on "Extent and Direction of Rural Community Change: A Social Impact Assessment of Reservoir Development." In addition to his success as a higher education administrator, Carter is author of several book chapters and journal articles ranging from Higher Education (Mission and Service) to Religion & Life in Appalachia, Rural Youth Drug Abuse and Community Change. Carter has taught some sociology classes at CU also. Carter is married to Debbie Carter, a former social work professor at CU. They have three children: Dr. Eric Carter, dean of regional instruction and services and associate professor of sociology; Dr. Wes Carter, associate vice president for university outreach; and Alicia Carter Shea. He is a member of and deacon at Campbellsville Baptist Church. Chapel services are televised live on WLCU (Comcast Cable channel 10 and digital channel 23.0) and are streamed live on the internet at wlcutv.com.
