Travel to Tennessee for the National Conference

First and foremost, we hope everyone is safe in the aftermath of the recent storms associated with Hurricane Helene. In regard to the recent storms resulting from the hurricane, we want everyone to know that all is well and safe in Knoxville! In fact, Knoxville was spared most of the rough stuff. There were devastating floods to the east of Knoxville, but mostly closer to NC. Anyone traveling by car from North or South Carolina may have some issues getting to Knoxville, and those traveling down I81 will probably have a lot of traffic to deal with. But getting to Knoxville from the west, or flying into the airport should not cause any problems. Our folks in Knoxville have heard nothing about any damage or closures between the airport and downtown, and no damage or closures downtown. Today, everything is open and as usual in Knoxville. Schools are in session, and it is just another normal day. There are some issues in East Tennessee (about 60+ miles east of Knoxville) to the North Carolina state line, and then the Asheville, NC, areas are difficult, but all in Knoxville is safe and running normally.

Speaker Event- Dopplegangers & Ghosts: Spiritualism and Spirit Photography

This virtual lecture examines the rise of Spiritualism as a religious force in the 19th century, in response to the perceived failure of rationalism to account for the nebulous woo-woo of life. Photography was soon put to service to "prove" the legitimacy of Spiritualist beliefs. The tension between reality and "what's really going on" has not abated since.

ABOUT CCHA

Community College Humanities Association (CCHA)
The Community College Humanities Association (CCHA), founded in 1979, is the only national organization for humanities faculty and administrators in two-year colleges. It is dedicated to strengthening and growing the humanities in two-year colleges as well as creating awareness of the value of humanities education for students, parents, employers, and members of the community. Since humanities study in higher education is not static, CCHA serves as a catalyst for defining and finding progressive solutions to the many fluid and mutable issues that face community college humanities faculty and administrators.
