Appreciation post for our awesome C-N educators and alums for the incredible impact they make! 👏

It is a unique calling to become a teacher, professor, administrator, assistant or educational professional. The world has never needed C-N educators more than it does today. Thank you to ALL of our Eagle educators for the difference you make in students’ lives throughout the world!

We’re excited to be named one of the “Best Value” schools by U.S. News & World Report! 👏

U.S. News & World Report’s 2027 rankings list us at #20 among all public and private schools in the Regional South, which consists of 12 states. The metrics consist of an institution’s academic quality, percentage of students receiving aid, the amount of grants and scholarships available and average university discounts. In addition, C-N was named in the Top 50 among all private and public universities in their overall rankings in the South.

“We fully believe that a quality education based on the liberal arts and grounded in the Christian faith is the best model in helping students discover God’s plan for their lives. A Carson-Newman education is an investment – with a lifetime of returns. As we celebrate our 175th anniversary, we are convinced now more than ever that preparing servant-leaders to impact their world for Christ is this University’s calling.” — Dr. Charles A. Fowler, C-N President

We’re excited to introduce the newest sport at Carson-Newman — Women’s Flag Football! 🏈

Flag football is one of the fastest-growing sports in college athletics right now, and we’re excited to add this program to our Intercollegiate Recreational Sports department! Within the last year, the sport saw more than 100,000 females participating on a national scale, which represents a 550% growth rate in a span of four years. The season will kickoff in the spring!

Positions and scholarships are still available! For more info about our Women’s Flag Football program, contact head coach Jessica Cable at [email protected]

It was an honor to celebrate Ken Sparks’ induction into the College Football Hall of Fame! 🏈

Coach Sparks cemented an unprecedented legacy on the banks of Mossy Creek. In 37 seasons, he led Carson-Newman football to five national championships and 21 SAC titles while producing more than 100 All-Americans and 40 NFL players. His 338 career wins ranked fifth in college football history at the time of his retirement and still ranks first in Division II.

More importantly, Sparks was a devoted husband, father and servant of Christ. His impact on the Kingdom and countless lives extends far beyond the gridiron. We are forever grateful for Ken Sparks and his legacy that continues on today.

In honor of today being 9-25, we thought we’d bless the timeline with some Dolly 🦋

When we conferred upon Dolly Parton a Doctor of Letters in 1990, she recognized Carson-Newman as a special place. We are thankful for her support of our mission and the lasting impact she made specifically in our beautiful Appalachian region.
