Fayetteville Technical Community College announces the appointment of Dr. Vikki Andrews to the College’s Board of Trustees. Dr. Andrews was officially sworn in on Nov.12 by the Honorable Judge Rosalyn Hood.

Appointed by the Cumberland County Commissioners, Dr. Andrews succeeds Esther Thompson and will serve a four- year term concluding on June 30, 2029.

A retired U.S. Army officer, Dr. Andrews brings a distinguished record of leadership and public service to FTCC. She currently serves as chair of the North Carolina Democratic Party Veterans & Military Families Caucus and previously led the Cumberland County Democratic Party for two terms. 

Beyond her political and civic engagement, Dr. Andrews has lent her expertise to numerous community and county boards, demonstrating a strong commitment to

education, service and advocacy.

“Dr. Andrews’ deep roots in community service and her experience as both a Veteran and former community college student brings valuable insight to our mission,” said FTCC President Dr. Mark Sorrells in a press release. “We look forward to her contributions as we continue supporting our active-duty service members, Veterans and military families.”

FTCC celebrates Dr. Andrews’ appointment as yet another step forward in advancing its goal of connecting education, leadership and community engagement for the greater good.
