The 2012-2013 academic year at Tyler was a joyous year of firsts and lasts. We celebrated the continued success of our first class of engineering graduates as they shared news of their upcoming graduations from places like the University of Virginia and Virginia Commonwealth University. We cheered the first student in the Great Expectations program as he crossed the stage at commencement and received his degree. We said goodbye to Dr. Marshall W. Smith after his 23-year presidency. We celebrated the retirement of three faculty members who served the College for a combined 126 years. We welcomed Dr. Edward “Ted” Raspiller as the seventh president of John Tyler Community College, and we looked to the future with bold hope and excitement for all that is to come as a new era began at John Tyler Community College. It was certainly a noteworthy, and memorable, year in the College’s history.
