Zachary

My school is best known for it's reputation as one of the best schools in Tennessee. It is known for it's football team, academics, but unfortunately it is also known as a party school. I hate this fact, the fraternities here give us such a bad reputation and it makes me sick. I'm here to be successful and get the best education I can, then I have to turn on the news and see my school getting suspended for having underage drinking at all the frat houses.

Football is king here. The basketball teams, especially the women's are underrated and they're the best to watch. UT is known for many things other than football, though. Most professors work on projects, publications and research on the side. The agricultural campus comes up with new teaching methods (mostly with cows) and the most innovative work comes from the Art and Architecture Building. Dr. Bass does work on the mysterious body farm with the decay of human bodies. When people think of Tennessee, they think of football, but there are many other aspects to life in Knoxville.

The University of Tennessee is an amazing school. We is big enough to have a wide diversity of students, yet small enough to really gain a great education. Probably the most popular aspect of my school is the sports scene. Knoxville is a pretty big city, but still on Saturdays in the fall campus is packed with Volunteer fans. Whether they are alumni, students or just fans, UT has so much support from the community that it is really a great place to call home. The sports on campus really bring the whole school together.
