  • The University of Virginia's College at Wise 2019-2020 Catalog
    The University of Virginia’s College at Wise 2019-2020 Catalog UVa-Wise 2019-2020 Catalog About the College The University of Virginia’s College at Wise, formerly Clinch Valley College of the University of Virginia, is the only four-year, state-supported college in far southwestern Virginia and is a division of the University of Virginia. Situated on 396 acres in Wise County, UVa-Wise is an incredible example of the determination and perseverance of southwestern Virginia citizens. Before the College was created, there were no public colleges in Virginia west of Radford. Higher education was simply out of reach for most residents of Virginia’s Appalachian Mountains. When local residents Fred B. Greear, William A. Thompson, Kenneth P. Asbury, affectionately known as the “Three Wise Men,” and others made their case to University of Virginia President Colgate Darden for establishing a college in Wise, the Commonwealth of Virginia supported the cause by offering $5,000 to open, staff, and operate the two-year school for the first year. Local supporters donated over $6,000 to furnish and equip the classrooms. Wise County donated property and two sandstone buildings, remnants of the county poor farm, to house the first classes. All of these events happened in the winter of 1954. In September of that same year, Clinch Valley College opened its doors to 100 freshmen. Many of the first classes of graduates went on to the University and other senior institutions and became some of the region’s most successful professionals. As more graduates of the two-year college expressed their preference to stay closer to home to complete their baccalaureate degrees, the College began the process to become a senior institution.

    Fire Dep't v. Kelly OATH Index No. 804/06 (June 9, 2006), modified on penalty, Comm’r Dec. (Jan. 2, 2007), appended Petitioner proved that firefighter was selected randomly and tested positive for drug use. Although respondent suffered from severe, chronic Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, he did not show that his drug use was involuntary. Penalty short of termination recommended due to extraordinary mitigation. Commissioner rejects penalty recommendation and terminates firefighter. ______________________________________________________ NEW YORK CITY OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE TRIALS AND HEARINGS In the Matter of FIRE DEPARTMENT Petitioner -against- THOMAS KELLY Respondent ____________________________________________________ REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION KEVIN F. CASEY, Administrative Law Judge The Fire Department (Department) brought this disciplinary proceeding under section 15- 113 of the Administrative Code, against firefighter Thomas Kelly. The charges allege that respondent tested positive for a controlled substance in violation of his oath of office, the Department All Units Circular 202 (Feb. 1, 1996) (AUC 202), and sections 25.1.6, 25.1.3, and 25.1.1 of the Rules and Regulations for the Uniformed Force (Jan. 1, 1997). Respondent admittedly tested positive for cocaine use (Tr. 108; Pet. Exs. 2 and 4). Although he challenged the randomness of the selection process, respondent primarily argued that his limited drug use was the result of a mental disability, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), incurred in the line of duty. The Department did not dispute that respondent suffers from severe, chronic PTSD; however, it claimed that his drug use was a voluntary act of misconduct. -2- At a hearing on February 6, 7, and 8, 2006, petitioner called three witnesses: the Department’s chief compliance officer; an investigator; and a psychiatrist.
