Thaxton Headed to Back to NGTC President’s Role

Dr. Gail Thaxton is returning to her role as President at North Georgia Technical College.

Last month, the Technical College System of Georgia named Dr. Andrea Daniel the new President of Athens Technical College and she started her duties on April 1.

In the time period where Athens Tech did not have a President, Dr. Thaxton had served as Interim President at the school.

While Dr. Thaxton was at Athens Tech, Dr. Mark Ivester served as Acting President for North Georgia Technical College.

Technical College System of Georgia Commissioner Gretchen Corbin said she thanks Dr. Thaxton for taking time away from her presidency at North Georgia Tech to lead Athens Tech.

Likewise, Corbin said she appreciates Dr. Mark Ivester, who took the reins during Dr. Thaxton’s absence and continued to add to North Georgia Tech’s successes.
