GLASGOW, KY — Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College is making a serious investment in this region’s future — and they just put it on the map.
SKYCTC has officially selected the land for its new Glasgow health campus: roughly 42 acres located between Veterans Outer Loop and Donnelley Drive, near the intersection with Bob Lewis Road. The property is currently owned by K. Richard Stahl and Michael Jerry, according to the Barren County Property Valuation Administration.
The move is backed by $28 million allocated to SKYCTC as part of a $90 million Kentucky Community and Technical College System capital construction package. That money was authorized in 2025 after the Kentucky General Assembly passed Joint Resolution 34, releasing funds originally appropriated in 2024.
“This acquisition represents an important step toward building a modern facility that can better serve students and the community,” SKYCTC Assistant Vice President wrote in a statement to Glasgow News 1. The new campus is designed to expand nursing and allied health programs — fields that South Central Kentucky desperately needs, especially as rural healthcare access continues to shrink statewide.
No construction timeline has been announced yet and no deed has been filed with the Barren County Clerk’s Office as of press time. But the land is chosen, the money is allocated, and Glasgow is about to become a bigger player in regional healthcare education.
This is the kind of infrastructure investment that changes a community for generations. Watch this space.
