The campus underwent a major multi-year construction project transforming the original building into a new facility. It features 15 classrooms with the latest teaching technology; ITV interactive television classroom, science-biology lab, computer lab, library, 18 faculty offices, administration offices, outdoor and indoor study areas. Several of the classrooms are prepared for Allied Health classes.
Vol State offers the Associate of Science and Associate of Applied Science degrees at Livingston. Classes include general education, vocational and career development courses. They are scheduled during the day and evening. Formats include video, online, hybrid and traditional classroom courses.
Vol State classes started in Livingston in 1991. By 1994, increasing enrollment led to discussions about a new facility. The Tennessee Board of Regents approved the plan in 2004. Construction began in July 2005. The $5 million project was funded by donations to the Livingston Campus Campaign, and those donations were matched by the Tennessee Board of Regents. The total amount raised by the community was $2,286,516.

Famous quotes containing the word state:
“So that the life of a writer, whatever he might fancy to the contrary, was not so much a state of composition, as a state of warfare; and his probation in it, precisely that of any other man militant upon earth,—both depending alike, not half so much upon the degrees of his WIT—as his RESISTANCE.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
