UT President Randy Boyd tours high schools to showcase higher ed opportunities 

University of Tennessee (UT) System President Randy Boyd recently began visiting several high schools across the state to highlight the system’s academic programming and financial aid options to prospective students.

According to an announcement, the main goal of Boyd’s tour, dubbed the “FindYourUT tour,” is to provide students with an in-depth look at programs across the system’s five campuses: UT-Knoxville, UT-Chattanooga, UT-Southern, UT-Martin, and the UT Health Science Center.

Since kicking off the tour last week, Boyd has visited Creekwood High School in Charlotte; Houston County High School in Erin; McEwen High School in McEwen; Tullahoma High School in Tullahoma; Franklin County High School in Winchester; Lawrence High School in Lawrenceburg; Union County High School in Maynardville; Grainger County High School in South Rutledge; and Cumberland Gap High School in Cumberland Gap.

“We understand that every student’s journey is different,” Boyd said. “Our goal is to meet students where they are and help them get to where they want to go. No matter what you’re looking for in a college experience, the UT System provides an environment for every kind of student, a location for every Tennessee resident and an education for every mind.”
