The University of Tennessee-Knoxville Top Questions

Describe the students at The University of Tennessee-Knoxville.

Julianne

I feel that UTK is a fairly diverse campus. The students seem open to new thoughts and ideas. Most student are from Tennessee and the states surrounding, but their is much diversity financially. Income classes vary greatly, and never seem to affect friendships or groups.

Mallory

Different groups around campus are pretty well known for being around the Pedestrian Walkway- especially religious ones. They are mostly on the dramatic end of the spectrum and therefore not well received by the student body. The LGBT participated in homecoming and that is all I have ever heard from them. I would say most of the student body is middle class. And they are from Tennessee. I would say that 50{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} are political and know why.

Lindsay

I think any type of student could feel at home at UTK. There are SO many different organizations that could be beneficial to anyone that chose to come here. Most students wear casual clothes to class, appropriate for the weather. Different types of students interact, mostly within class time. Most UTK students are from Tennessee or the surrounding states. Many students here seem to be conservative, but I'd say it's equal both ways.

Laura

no students should ever feel out of place anywhere. utk and all schools should never be judgemental. no one ever really says anything mean, or nothing i have ever heard of.

Lindsey

Most students wear jeans and a tee shirt or sweats. After the first day of class there is no reason to dress up anymore. Most UTK students are from all over Tennessee with a concentration on Knoxville and Nashville.

Megan

I think the student body needs improvement most because most do not care about voting or the effects that take place because of SGA.

Devin

I think things should be more unified. Different kinds of students interact. It seems most students are from Tennessee especially the Nashville area. The students who care about politics and are interested in them participate in politics. Students do talk about how much they will earn someday.
