    Oct 28 2026
    This week on College Town Talk, we sit down with Dr. Kim Hanna, dean of Tennessee Tech’s newly elevated Whitson-Hester College of Nursing and a proud Tennessee Tech alumna who has served the university in various roles since 1989. Dr. Hanna discusses what the transition from a school to a college means for the nursing program and reflects on the momentum that has led to record enrollment, a 95% first-time pass rate on the NCLEX and growing national recognition. She also looks back on her own journey from Tech student to faculty member and, ultimately, dean, and shares her perspective on the mentors and experiences that shaped her career. Plus, Dr. Hanna discusses the moving story behind the Roy and Syd Byrd Scholarship Endowment and takes on our rapid-fire round.
