Congressman Comer led efforts in Congress to secure funding for Campbellsville University’s School of Business, Economics, and Technology Building Project, which will create a premier new facility on CU’s main campus to house the CU School of Business, Economics, and Technology. “I’m proud to have worked alongside local leaders at Campbellsville University and throughout Taylor County to secure federal funding for the Campbellsville University School of Business, Economics, and Technology Building Project. This investment marks a significant step forward for the University, providing modern space and resources to launch new and innovative academic programs. I remain committed to advocating in Congress for our local universities and students, so they have the tools they need to excel,” said Congressman Comer. “We are grateful for Congressman Comer’s continued support and for the recognition of the vital role higher education plays in supporting our communities. This funding marks an important step in Campbellsville University’s ongoing efforts to strengthen programs that prepare entrepreneurs and business leaders. CU is dedicated to helping Kentuckians pursue the American dream,” said Joseph Hopkins, Campbellsville University President. Background: Campbellsville University, located in Taylor County, is a private university enrolling more than 12,000 students, offering associate, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. This grant will allow the new academic building to feature collaborative workspaces, an institute for economic development in partnership with local workforce and economic development organizations, a lecture and meeting space for the local community, a virtual learning lab equipped with VR, AR, and robotics tools, as well as a free enterprise and small business incubator. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
