What is the University Center?

The university is an educational and economic development partnership among the community colleges that comprise the Arkansas Delta Training and Education Consortium (ADTEC). The colleges are Arkansas Northeastern College, Arkansas State University-Newport, East Arkansas Community College, Mid-South Community College, and Phillips Community College of the University of Arkansas.
