Winter 2022

If each decision you make reflects a value in your life—from how you spend your money to how you use your time and how you treat others—then your whole life testifies to your undeniable character, for good or ill. It’s the same for businesses and universities as well. UT leadership took the time to talk to faculty and staff across the system and then to develop its values, which you’ll find throughout these stories.

As faculty, staff, students and alumni continue to live up to these values, they also shine forth with another truth: Be One UT. Each campus and institute plays an important role in the state of Tennessee. Together, we make Tennessee better. Together, we make Tennessee stronger. Together, we are one UT.
