Message from the Senior VP
John W. Cothern
Although we are well into the spring semester, I want to say happy
new year and hope that you had an enjoyable and safe time off
during the holidays.
As you may know, our spring semester enrollment is up much like
we had in the fall. MTSU seems to just keep growing. That is good
but can also create challenges. Notwithstanding those challenges,
please be sure to thank our students for making MTSU their
university of choice.
If you have not had a chance, you should read President McPhee’s
January 2007 Newsletter that can be found on the MTSU website.
It is very informative and covers many projects in which the Can Do
Crew played a significant part.
As you will note in our Newsletter, several Business and Finance Division activities are being planned for this spring. Hopefully you
will be able to participate.
Your support of the Image Committee and the Business and Finance
Council by providing input will be greatly appreciated. We need to
hear about any concerns or recommendations that you have.
As always, thank you for being a Business and Finance employee.
