July 2026 Video Message
Happy July, Falcons!
Last summer I completed my promise to visit all 55 West Virginia counties. This summer I’m bringing more than 60 Falcons – including leaders, students, faculty, staff, and alumni – with me to Wyoming, Raleigh, and McDowell Counties. From July 13th-16th, we’ll listen, connect, and build lasting partnerships.
This year’s On the Road trip begins with a kickoff event at Twin Falls Resort State Park’s Courtyard on Monday, July 13th at 6 pm. This will be followed by county-wide events, community tours, and meaningful conversations that will strengthen Fairmont State’s relationships, help us identify meaningful partnerships, and show how the University can help move our state forward.
To learn more about On the Road with Fairmont State, be sure to watch this month’s presidential update video. I also invite you to check out the On the Road website for details on our itinerary and to see how you can be involved.
Also, be sure to keep up with us On the Road by following our social media channels!
We can’t wait to see you all On the Road!
