Progress on the Future Dickson County Center for Higher Education Showcased During Local Tour

Local leaders recently toured the Dickson County Center for Higher Education, the future home of Nashville State Community College’s Dickson campus and healthcare-related TCAT Dickson programs.

Participants included Dickson County Mayor Bob Rial, Dickson Mayor Don Weiss, Jr., Nashville State Community College President Dr. Shanna L. Jackson, TCAT Dickson and Clarksville President Dr. Laura Travis, TriStar Horizon Medical Center CEO Wyatt Chocklett, and Jackson Foundation Board Chair Bob Spencer, along with additional key members from each of the organizations mentioned, as well as HOAR Construction and Anecdote Architecture.

The new facility, located off Highway 46 next to TriStar Horizon Medical Center’s Natchez campus, is scheduled to open in August 2026. Once complete, it will expand access to higher education and workforce training opportunities in Dickson County and the surrounding region.
