LAWRENCEBURG, Ind. — An agriculture teacher and a manufacturing training leader have been appointed to the Southeast Regional Board of Trustees for Ivy Tech Community College, filling vacancies created with the retirements of two long-serving board members.
Amanda Briggs, the agriculture teacher and FFA Advisor at Madison Consolidated High School, and Brett Hofer, the Safety and Training Coordinator at Batesville Tool & Die, join a seven-member board that guides the college, which includes approving the college’s regional budget and serving as student and community advocates.
Briggs and Hofer will each serve three-year terms. Ivy Tech’s state board appoints regional trustees with the aim of keeping the region in touch with local needs. Members represent various economic sectors, including commerce, manufacturing, agriculture, and education.
