Paducah, KY – The city of Paducah has joined with the McCracken County Fiscal Court to help fund a new Murray State University extended campus along I-24. Officials yesterday approved the measure, which Mayor Bill Paxton describes as monumental'. The campus will enable MSU to offer its first 4-year degree program in Paducah and McCracken County. The proposed project includes building a $10 million, 40,000 square foot facility to replace MSU's Crisp Center on Irvin Cobb Drive.
