I invite you to join me Tuesday, January 7, as we kick off the 2014 year at our Welcome Back Celebration!

This celebration will bring together all Faculty and Staff after the long winter break and will commence the year-long celebration of our 75th Anniversary with a birthday party for the college. We also have the honor of presenting local author Greg Coker as the guest speaker.

Join me at 8:30 a.m. for a meet and greet and stay until the celebration concludes with a birthday party luncheon. The event will be hosted in Building F Conference Room on Main Campus.

All 16 KCTCS colleges and the System Office will partner with 42 African-American and Latino church congregations to co-sponsor and co-host 45 college fair events across the Commonwealth.

Super Sunday is an annual student recruitment initiative specifically targeting African-American students and their families, with information and resources to support college admissions and enrollment. College and system personnel will interact with approximately 10,000 students and their families at the 2014 event.

On Saturday, February 23, 2013 the KCTCS and SKYCTC will partner with St. Joseph Catholic Church and host an information fair for prospective Hispanic/Latino students and their family.

On Sunday, February 24, 2013, the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS), and each of its 16 colleges will partner with African-American churches throughout the state to host college information fairs for prospective college students and their families.

The day will promote higher education to show students how they can achieve a college education. It will also highlight the role of parental involvement and early preparation in facilitating successful access to college for African- Americans. It is part of the KCTCS Super Sunday statewide effort to encourage early planning for college and the involvement of community members as mentors for young people.

24 inmates earn GED diplomas at jail

SKYCTC Adult Education Instructor Lyndel Graven
congratulates inmates at the Warren County Jail
who have earned their GED while incarcerated.
By JUSTIN STORY The Daily News
Like just about anyone else behind bars, James Keelin hungers for freedom. The newly minted GED graduate also has a yen for knowledge.

Keelin, 39, was part of the 24-person class of inmates at Warren County Regional Jail who attained GED diplomas in the fall.

He's serving a sentence for second-degree assault, first-degree wanton endangerment, intimidating a witness and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, but he hopes to forge a new life when he is released, which he hopes will be in a matter of months.

"I never wanted to get a GED in my life before, I always thought it was impossible to do," Keelin said. "It's opened my eyes up to a different part of me I didn't know I had."

Twelve graduates participated in a commencement ceremony Tuesday at the jail – the other graduates have either been released or transferred to another facility.

The jail has partnered over the last several years with Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College to provide the GED program for inmates at the jail.

Speakers at the ceremony, including Warren County Jailer Jackie Strode, SKYCTC adult education manager Mary Ford and James McCaslin, interim vice president of outreach and community development, urged the new graduates to continue on a productive path outside of jail instead of simply resting on the accomplishment of earning a GED certificate.

"I want to commend you for doing what you've done by earning this," Strode told the graduates. "Keep bettering yourself no matter where you go when you leave here."

The latest graduates are the last who completed the now phased-out written GED exam.

Beginning this year, the GED test is entirely computerized and features more challenging content, Ford said.
Where the old test included five categories, the newer format combines the reading and writing portions of the former exam into one English Language Arts category.

"Students will have to know more computer skills," Ford said. "Even the pre-test, which they have to pass first, is all computer based."

o pass the GED, students have to score a total of 2,250 points and achieve an average of 450 points for all categories. Students who did not meet all the requirements before the start of this year lost all the points they had accumulated and will have to start over in the new format.

The cost to take the test also doubled, from $60 to $120.

New graduates, like Keelin, will have their own set of decisions to weigh when they are released.

Keelin's family is in Louisville, including a daughter about to graduate from high school, but he is thinking about moving into a halfway house in Warren County to take advantage of additional educational opportunities and potential job offers. His daughter plans to attend Western Kentucky University, Keelin said, so at least some family will be nearby.

"I'm very happy with how far I've come in my life, but I can't stop here," Keelin said. "Once the mind gets hungry, it wants more."
