Entering its 64th year, the Ohio Valley Conference contin-ues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. For only the sec-ond time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois University Edwardsville as the league’s 11th member in 2008. The move expanded the OVC’s geo-graphical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the first change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Samford) in 2003.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commis-sioner in league history. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences.

The OVC’s proud past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations direc-tor at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions com-bined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC.

In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958, Marshall Banks earned athletical-ly-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961, Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic op-portunities to African-Americans.

A first in the OVC occurred in 2008, when the league had a first round draft pick in both the NFL (Tennessee State’s Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie) and Major League Base-ball (Eastern Kentucky’s Christian Friedrich) Drafts in the same school year. The OVC sponsors the following sports: baseball, basket-ball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle.

Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin.

Tennessee State has been a member of the Ohio Valley Conference since 1986.

TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITYTENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY

The DAVIS BUILDING is topped by its landmark cupola and houses the Department of Languages, Literature and Philosophy and the Thomas E. Poag Auditorium. The building, which once housed the administrative of-fi ces, is named after TSU’s second president Dr. Walter S. Davis.

Founded in 1912, Tennessee State University has grown dramatically from a small college to two campuses: the 500-acre main campus and the downtown Avon Williams campus which is located in the heart of Nashville near the State capitol.

The diverse student population of more than 8,000 represents 46 states and 45 countries. TSU has been listed for 11 consecutive years in the U.S. News & World Report “Guide to America’s Best Colleges.”

Tennessee State University is a comprehensive, urban, coeducational land-grant university offering 45 bachelor degrees and 24 master’s de-grees. Doctoral programs include biological sciences, psychology, pub-lic administration, computer information systems engineering, adminis-tration and supervision, and curriculum and instruction. When you think about Tennessee State University, many things come to mind – a rich heritage and legacy in athletics, academics, entertainment, research and service.

Tennessee State University has long been a rising star among universi-ties across the country. It is designated as one of the best public his-torically black colleges and universities in the nation, and it’s not by accident.

Tennessee State University is among the few historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) with a chapter of Phi Eta Sigma, the oldest and largest freshman honor society in the United States and a Phi Kap-pa Phi Honor Society, the most prestigious honor society comprising all academic disciplines.

A great deal of focus has been given to improving the academic en-vironment – strengthening our research reputation, attracting and re-taining the best and brightest students, encouraging service-focused programs, engaging and supporting expert faculty in diverse fi elds, building on our student-centered philosophy and holding steadfast to our motto of “Think. Work. Serve.”

Currently, we are improving customer service and setting new stan-dards of excellence in higher education. But with all the many examples of past accomplishments we can share, we are looking toward an even brighter future.

Brown-Daniel Library

Averitte Amphitheater

AVERITTE AMPHITHEATER located in the center of campus; landscaped and has permanent seat-ing for 200. The structure is named after Laura M. Averitte, author of Tennessee State University’s alma mater.

Today, Tennessee State University’s student enrollment is more than 8,000. There are more than 400 faculty and more than 1,200 staff who are part of the university’s team. Additionally, the university’s rich strength in embrac-ing diversity is evident with 45 countries and 46 states representative of the student body.

The beauty and accessibility of the university’s main campus is a plus with now 65 buildings on more than 450 acres.

Complimenting the main campus is a newly renovated downtown campus that features a simulated stock-trading center, a student computer labora-tory and continuing education, distance learning and multimedia services.

The university is arming students with the intellectual resources to com-pete in a global environment. In support of that, important partnerships have been established with leading global companies such as Boeing, Raytheon, Dell, IBM and others, in which both funding and service-learning opportunities are currently active.

The PERFORMING ARTS CENTER is located adjacent to the east side of the existing Strange Music Building. The facility houses the Theater, Television, Radio and Music Departments and includes a complete renovation of the Strange Music Building.

Performing Arts Center

The FLOYD-PAYNE CAMPUS CENTER contains various student and administrative offi ces, cam-pus bookstore, post offi ce, and dining services.

AVON WILLIAMS CAMPUSAVON WILLIAMS CAMPUSThe Avon Williams Campus is located downtown, near the center of the Nashville business and government dis-trict. Avon Nyanza Williams, Jr., a leading African American lawyer in Tennessee and state senator, represented the plaintiffs in Geier v. Blanton 1972.

In 1972, the federal judge, Frank T. Gray, Jr., allowed Sterling Adams and Raymond Richardson (two black profes-sors of mathematics at TSU) and nearly 100 other black citizens from across Tennessee to enter the Geier case as plaintiffs. They formed Tennesseans for Justice in Higher Education. Their complaint centered on the issue that the pres-ence in Nashville of two state supported universities, Tennessee State University a historically black institution and predominately white University of Tennessee at Nashville, perpetuated a state of segregation in higher educa-tion in Nashville.

In February 1977, Judge Gray ordered the merger of both institutions under the governance of Tennessee State University.

This was the fi rst time that a court in a higher education desegregation suite had ordered a historically black col-lege to take over a predominately white one. In 1979 the University of Tennessee at Nashville merged with Tennes-see State University, creating an enlarged institution with two campuses and increased enrollment.

The original TSU campus, located in North Nashville is designated as the Main Campus and the former UT-N cam-pus was renamed in honor of Avon Williams, Jr.

Dr. Portia Shields was appointed to the presidency of Tennessee State Uni-versity effective January 2, 2011 – the fi rst female to assume the role of President in the history of the institution. Before her appointment at TSU, Shields served as fi rst female chief executive offi cer and chief academic offi cer at Concordia College in Selma, Alabama, from November 2007 to December 2009. At Concordia, she improved academic programs and in-stitutional effectiveness, raised campus academic standards, enhanced the college’s fi nancial operations and led the effort to address accreditation con-cerns from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC).

Shields assumed the executive post at Albany State University in 1996, be-coming its fi rst female president and retiring in 2005 after serving for ten years. As the University’s seventh president, Shields inherited a campus recovering from the destructive fl oodwaters of the Flint River, which had consumed nearly two-thirds of the 204-acre campus in 1994. Her leadership was critical to the university, as she spearheaded a $153-million rebuilding program that revitalized the institution. She was also instrumental in se-curing an unprecedented $3-million donation from Georgia-born performing artist Ray Charles in 2002, and procured more than $25 million in external grant funds in the following academic year.

Prior to her leadership at Albany State, Shields served as Dean of the School of Education at Howard University in Washington, D.C., where she initiated the University’s fi rst comprehensive early learning and pre-college prepara-tion programs. She previously served as director of medical education and biomedical communications in the University’s College of Medicine, where she led the design and construction of state-of-the-art science and technol-ogy lab and faculty development initiative.

Shields earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Education from the Dis-trict of Columbia Teachers College, one of three institutions that were later merged to form the University of the District of Columbia. She earned a Master of Arts degree in Education from George Washington University, Washington, D.C., and the Doctor of Philosophy degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education from the University of Maryland at College Park. She pursued advanced study completing a post-doctoral fellowship in West Africa, awarded by the African American Institute, New York, New York. Ad-ditional scholarly research and studies were completed at Harvard Univer-sity, Cambridge, Massachusetts; Columbia University, New York, New York; American University, Washington, D.C.; and the University of the District of Columbia.

Named in 2004 as one of Georgia’s 50 Most Infl uential Women by the Geor-gia Informer, Shields is distinguished as one of the founding presidents of the American University of Ethiopia. She has a wide range of stellar experi-ences and accomplishments in the fi eld of higher education with appoint-ments and affi liations with the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Inc., American Council on Education, American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Com-munities in Schools of Georgia and Georgia Appleseed. Additional member-ships include Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., National Council of Negro Women, and Phi Delta Kappa and Kappa Delta Pi Honor Societies.

Tony Howell joined the Tennessee State University volleyball staff as an assistant coach in April 2009.

Howell came to Tennessee State University a er spending six years as the top volleyball assistant at Belmont University. During his s nt at Belmont he spearheaded the volleyball team’s na onally-recog-nized service game, trained outside hi ers, and managed the video and scou ng aspects of the program.

As a coach of the service game, How-ell saw three teams lead the A-Sun in aces per set, with two fi nishing second. The Bruins made a no ce-able change a er Howell’s arrival in 2004 by turning around 10th-place conference fi nish in aces per set to leading the conference in 2004.

Most recently in 2008 the Bruins ranked fi h among all Division I

schools with 2.1 aces per set, while pacing the conference. Howell also helped mold the individual perfor-mance of A-Sun Freshman of the Year Channing Salava, who ranked 21st among Division I players in aces per set with 0.47.

Howell arrived at Belmont with an extensive coaching background at the college and club levels. Prior to gradua ng from North Texas in 1996, Howell began his coaching career as an undergraduate assis-tant coach in 1994 for the Mean Green volleyball program. In 1995, Howell helped North Texas capture their fi rst Southland Conference championship.

That same year Howell was intro-duced to coaching at the club level as the head coach of the 15-17 age division for Team North Texas.

In 1996 Howell was named assis-tant coach at Texas Wesleyan in Fort Worth, Texas, where he was in charge of scheduling, travel, bud-get, recrui ng, scou ng and sta s- cs. Howell also remained a club

coach while he was with the Rams un l 2000.

TSU OLYMPIAN STATUE

The total height of the monumental icon, the TSU Olym-pian Statue, is 46 feet. It was constructed using the slip roller technique, a process that allows an artist to bend sheets of metal at incremental degrees between rollers. The artist who designed and constructed the TSU Olympian has been a faculty member at Tennes-see State University since 1994, Jane-Allen McKinney, Associate Professor of Art.

THE FIGURE:The fi gure is made of brass, aluminum and copper with a brush textured fi nish and the fi gure itself stands 21’ tall. The percentage of each metal used in the sculp-ture corresponds in direct proportion to the number of Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals won by athletes affi li-ated with Tennessee State University (Brass for Gold medallist, Aluminum for Silver medallist, and Copper for Bronze medallist).

“The TSU Olympian holds a brass diploma in the right hand as an icon for the educational baton passed from TSU to her students.” All of the TSU Olympic winners earned undergraduate degrees from TSU. The diploma reads “Tennessee State University, Degree Awarded” with this text visible to the viewer standing at the foot of the base. The Olympic torch is in the left hand of the runner.

THE COLUMNS:The Olympian stands on two Egyptian papyrus style columns, one 16’-8” for the raised bent knee and one 14’ for the extended leg. The Papyrus columns consist of ribbed aluminum banded with brass, aluminum and copper, representing bundles of papyrus stocks tied together for strength, typical of Egyptian columns.

THE BASE:The base of the TSU Olympian is made of pre-cast concrete 11 feet high and nearly 19 feet at its greatest diameter. It is adorned with three metal bands, each band engraved with the names of Olympic medallists from Tennessee State University (Brass for Gold med-allist, Aluminum for Silver medallist, and Copper for Bronze medallist). Future Tennessee State University Olympic winners will have their names added to these bands. The base is in the style of a capital from an Egyptian column. Engraved bricks surround the base of the TSU Olympian with names and messages from TSU patrons whose donations for the bricks will sup-port TSU students. All proceeds from the Olympic brick program will be for Tennessee State University student scholarships. est. 2005

MUSIC CITYWith a metropolitan population of nearly one million, Nashville is the largest city in the Ohio Valley Conference. Despite its size, Nashville is a pleasant mix of big city entertainment and “down home” friendliness. Tennessee State University is one of three historically black colleges and uni-versities in Nashville.

Tennessee State University is in the middle of the action. The main campus is located just five min-utes west of downtown Nashville, while the Avon Williams campus is located in the heart of down-town. Nashville is a cornerstone of the mid-south economy, and Tennessee State University gradu-ates are prominent in the Nashville community and business scene.

Resting halfway between the northern and southern boundaries of the United States, Nashville is the capital of Tennessee and the

entertainment, cultural and commercial center of the mid-south. Nashville’s location puts it near the nation’s Southern population center. Major cities such as Atlanta, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Memphis and Birmingham can all be reached by car within 3-5 hours.

Nashville’s 17,000-seat Bridgestone Arena, the home of the NHL Nashville Predators, hosted first- and second-round action of the 2000 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament and the 2009 Ohio Valley Conference Men’s Basketball Championships.

The 2008 AFC Central Champion Tennessee Titans brought the National Football League to Nashville. The team currently shares its 67,000-seat home, LP Field, with the Tennessee State Football Tigers. The stadium is just across the Cumberland River from downtown Nashville.

The Predators hit the ice in 1998. The team led the NHL in attendance for markets under two million its first year, drawing an average of 16,202 fans per game. Professional baseball can also be found in Nashville with the Nashville Sounds. The Sounds play in the Pacific Coast League as the AAA affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers.

Known as “Music City, USA,” Nashville is a city whose music tastes range from country to rock to gospel. Nashville has several major concert ven-ues along with some world-renowned music clubs. Most headline concert tours make a stop in Music City. When it comes to having a good time, there is no better place than Nashville. The city offers a multitude of sporting events, a full range of recreational opportunities, the largest movie theater east of the Mississippi River, res-taurants, parks and places to shop.
