Southcentral Community and Technical College has decided on the land that will house its new Glasgow health campus.
The property consists of roughly 42 acres and is located between the Veterans Outer Loop and Donnelley Drive, near the intersection with Bob Lewis Road, according to Assistant Vice President of Marketing and Communications Rebecca Lee, adding that the college has not closed on the property but has approval from the secretary to do so.
“[T]his acquisition represents an important step toward building a modern facility that can better serve students and the community,” Lee wrote in an email sent to Glasgow News 1. “A new campus will allow us to expand nursing and allied health programs and the opportunity to add additional instruction in the future.”
K. Richard Stahl and Michael Jerry are among those who own the property, according to the Public Valuation Administration website. The estimated value of the property is $1.2 million; however, Lee did not disclose the purchasing price when asked by Glasgow News 1.
As of publication, there was no mention of a construction timeline, and no deed has been filed with the Barren County Clerk’s Office.
In 2025, the Kentucky General Assembly passed Joint Resolution 34, which authorized the release of $90 million appropriated in 2024 Regular Session for capital construction projects for Kentucky Community and Technical College System. Southcentral Community and Technical College was given $28 million as part of that total.
The current college nursing campus is located on State Avenue, behind T.J. Samson Community Hospital.
