Note from the Vice Chancellor

Welcome to the University of Tennessee at Martin Alumni website! As you all know, UT Martin educates and engages responsible citizens to lead and serve in a diverse world.

At UT Martin, we place a special emphasis on affordability and accessibility. Still today, one-third of our current students are the first in their families to attempt bachelor’s degrees. Frequently, they shoulder college costs themselves and working several jobs to make tuition payments. For many of these students, even living on campus is beyond our reach. UT Martin has many priorities, but student scholarships remain, and will remain, one of our most important needs. We are thankful for those of you who have made an impact and contributions to help our students soar at UT Martin!

At the end of the day, this is the essence of our story at UT Martin. And as we go forward, we are comforted and inspired by the miles traveled already while staying confident and grateful for all those we will meet on the road to celebrate UT Martin’s 125th Birthday in 2025. We hope to see more of you create and elevate your impact with your alma mater. Together, we can help UT Martin continue to SOAR!

Stay UTM Proud,

Jeanna Curtis Swafford
Vice Chancellor for University Advancement
