More than 500 high school students visited the Decatur Indoor Sports Center on Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2026, for the third annual Macon County College & Career Fair, presented by ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ University and Richland Community College.
The event brought together representatives from more than 50 colleges, universities, and career-ready organizations to allow students one-stop access to the planning information necessary for success post-high school.
βThe Macon County College & Career Fair is a great opportunity for juniors and seniors to begin thinking about their plans after high school,β said Jordan Diver β21, ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔβs Director of Events and Communication. βSeeing so many students connect with college and career-ready organizations was a wonderful reflection of the interest students have in exploring what comes next.β
The fair is one example of how strong partnerships help students navigate their futures. By bringing higher education and career-ready organizations together with students in one location, the event helped create connections, expand possibilities, and strengthen pathways for students as they transition from high school to college and careers.
