Academic Village

The E&H campus is located in the village of Emory, which is home to students as well as E&H professors, administrators and retired college employees. It is an "academical" environment in the spirit of Thomas Jefferson that underscores the broad dedication within the community to each student's enlightenment and success. This environment has contributed to the success of six E&H professors who have been named state Professor of the Year by the Carnegie Foundation. Only a handful of colleges and universities have been represented as frequently as Emory & Henry by the recipients of this award. One of those professors was even chosen U.S. Professor of the Year, the highest teaching honor in the nation.
