Dr. Kenny Yarbrough of Volunteer State Community College has completed a prestigious Fellowship with the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR). The Maxine Smith Fellowship seeks to increase the academic and professional credentials of the Fellows by allowing them to observe and participate in decision-making situations at TBR. Each Fellow works on a project as part of the program. Dr. Yarbrough’s project was titled: “Crisis Combatted: Barrier Removing Strategies in the Online Learning Environment for Underrepresented Minority Students.” The report will be published online with the other Maxine Fellowship projects. Yarbrough is the Director of Student Life and Diversity Initiatives at Vol State.
