* Kentucky: Several community colleges and smaller universities are located in the eastern part of the state which is within the Plateau. Specific names would require a more precise geographic limitation. Eastern Kentucky University is sometimes considered at the edge or transition zone.
* Tennessee: Similar to Kentucky, many community colleges and smaller universities are within the Appalachian Plateau region of eastern Tennessee. Again, specifying requires a more focused geographic area. The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, is situated near the edge of the plateau.
* Virginia: Colleges in the southwestern part of Virginia, often near the border with Tennessee and Kentucky, are likely situated in the Appalachian Plateau. Specific examples would necessitate defining a more precise boundary.
* West Virginia: West Virginia is largely situated within the Appalachian Plateau. Many colleges and universities are found here, including:
* West Virginia University (Morgantown) - though parts of its campus are outside the plateau.
* Marshall University (Huntington)
* Numerous community colleges throughout the state
To get a more precise list, you would need to specify:
* Which states: Are you interested in colleges in Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Alabama, or Ohio portions of the plateau?
* Specific geographic area within the plateau: The plateau is quite large. Narrowing down the area (e.g., "colleges in the Cumberland Plateau region of Tennessee") would significantly improve the accuracy of a response.
In short, a comprehensive list requires more geographic specificity. The colleges mentioned above are examples, not an exhaustive list.
