The episode of \u201cThe College Tour,\u201d a national show, featuring Tusculum is now streaming on Amazon Prime<\/a> as part of Season 11. Those who subscribe to this service can watch the 29-minute episode, which presents the stories of 10 students and alumni<\/a> sharing the strengths of Tusculum and the region from a variety of perspectives.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled people will learn through Amazon Prime about the ways we prepare students in a caring Christian environment to be career-ready, civically engaged professionals,\u201d said Dr. Jacob Fait, vice president of enrollment management<\/a> and financial aid<\/a>. \u201cThe terrific stories shared by our students and alumni are compelling and reinforce the pioneering spirit that makes Tusculum the right choice to earn a degree.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Fait took the lead to collaborate with \u201cThe College Tour\u201d to film the episode and teamed with other stakeholders on campus as well as those who appeared on the show to present the story of Tusculum, Tennessee\u2019s first university.<\/p>\n

Representatives of \u201cThe College Tour\u201d filmed the episode on the historic campus in October, and the university premiered the episode to a packed house at The Capitol Theatre in downtown Greeneville in February. The atmosphere inside the facility on premiere day was electric, with cheering and smiles abounding as the 10 informative segments played on the screen. The event featured an orange carpet for entry to the Capitol in line with one of the university\u2019s two colors.<\/p>\n

The cast consisted of students David Bowlin, Stephen Brewer, Isabelle Delbridge, Kobe Funderburk, Josie Norton, Grayson Patterson, Xavier Velazquez, Maggie Vickers and Todd Wallin and alumnus Diont\u00e9 Grey, a 2012 graduate. Bowlin, Delbridge, Funderburk, Patterson and Vickers have since earned their bachelor\u2019s degrees from the university.<\/p>\n

Each cast member discussed a different aspect of the Tusculum experience, such as active and experiential learning, affordability, athletics, the arts, civic engagement and the opportunity to grow in faith. The beauty of the campus and the rest of East Tennessee and the ability to have fun in one of the more historic regions of the country was another message. Grey highlighted how he used the lessons he learned at Tusculum to make a difference in the community as executive director of UrbanPromise Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis outstanding episode reflects the abundant strengths of Tusculum and demonstrates how a Tusculum education enriches and transforms students\u2019 lives,\u201d said Dr. Scott Hummel, Tusculum\u2019s president. \u201cTusculum is a gem, and we are delighted to work with \u2018The College Tour\u2019 to share the preciousness of our university to national and international audiences.
