Bryan resigns from NTCC Board

The Northeast Texas Community College Board of Trustees lost a longtime member this week as John Bryan resigned from his position. Bryan, of Naples, served on the NTCC Board since 1996.

In his resignation letter, which was effective Aug. 31, Bryan indicated that he is very pleased with the progress that has been made at the college during the time he has served on the Board.

“It has been my honor and privilege to represent the citizens of Morris County, as well as the entire NTCC college district, on this Board of Trustees for the past 20 years,” Bryan said. “During that time NTCC has grown and matured into an efficient and effective educational institution. I am especially proud of both the NTCC Honors program and the agriculture program.”

During his time on the Board, Bryan has served in leadership roles as both Chairman and Vice Chairman. He is the Chairman of the Board of Texas Heritage National Bank and also volunteers his time for numerous other boards and causes in Morris County.

“John Bryan is someone who truly lives in service to his community. His leadership and vision has helped steer the college through some difficult times. His presence on our board will be greatly missed,” Dr. Brad Johnson, NTCC President, said.

The Board of Trustees will consider appointing a replacement for Bryan at its September meeting. Anyone interested in serving in this capacity should submit in writing their name, contact information, and a statement about their interest to Board Chair Dr. Dan McCauley, 1603 N. Jefferson Street, Mt. Pleasant, TX 75455.
