Hello, Vols!

Whether you spent your summer abroad, exploring the beautiful city of Knoxville or simply relaxing in your own hometown, let us be the first to tell you that your Student Government Association is thrilled to have you here at UT!

Even if you are new to good ole’ Rocky Top, you probably already know that there is always plenty going on. We are 27,000 of the luckiest people because we are being educated at THE University of Tennessee, where we have the opportunity to encounter unique people and experiences that mean even more than a Vols win on Saturday. As your SGA, we want to not only help facilitate these experiences and interactions, but we also want to participate with you and to connect with you and other Vols. As an organization, we exist to understand the various passions of the student body, to advocate for what you care about on campus, and to seek out ways to make your experience at UT the best it can be.

This year will not be without its challenges, but the best things never are. Whether it’s parking, dining, state issues, diversity and inclusion or all of the other topics that affect our lives as students on a daily basis, we have to dive into these conversations and advocate for all students that make up our campus. One of the most important parts of our journey as students is the impact that we have on one another. This year we want you to partner with us, for your relationship with your SGA to be engaging in our programs and initiatives, but also relating to us and fellow students by sharing with us what makes being a Volunteer important to you.

We are so excited for another incredible year here on Rocky Top, and we can’t wait to see you around campus and tell you what we are working on, like providing free textbooks, establishing a Creed Week and advocating for an alcohol policy change. Never hesitate to reach out if you ever have any problems, ideas, or concerns you want your Student Government to address. We’re located in Dunford 2211, and we would love for you to stop by!

Welcome to our Home Sweet Home.

Go Vols!
