The students also picked up newly-created maps of the New River Greenbrier Valley Campus which highlighted the GVC’s facilities including the new Lee Street Complex (site of the former Lewisburg Elementary School), where Allied Health programs (Practical Nursing, Medical Assisting, Phlebotomy and EMT-Paramedic) are now located.
