Students, faculty and staff at Tennessee’s community colleges and colleges of applied technology collected and donated the equivalent of 163,175 food items during TBR-The College System of Tennessee’s 27th Annual Food Drive Challenge.

The donations go to campus food pantries for students in need and to local food banks and programs serving their communities. In addition to food donations, campuses collected cash contributions, which count in the collection totals as two items per dollar raised. This year’s food drive greatly surpassed last year’s total of 110,851 items.

The Tennessee Board of Regents approved new career and technical education programs at four technical college campuses, a name change for Tennessee College of Applied Technology Crossville, a revised fee schedule, and other items on its quarterly meeting agenda Wednesday.
