And U -T's talented students have shown their abilities in other ways, as demonstrated by the acclaim accorded the U-T Singers and the Pride of the Southland Band in the field of music, the Woodrow Wilson and Fulbright fellowships won by graduating seniors, and the superior showing of U-T's team in the nationally televised CoUege Bowl. Not only are more U-T students remaining in college to earn the baccalaureate degree­ more remain in college to take graduate studies. Approximately one-third of U-T's bachelor-de­ gree graduates begin working immediately on advanced degrees, and another 47 per cent ex­ press an intention to do graduate study at a later time. The high quality of U-T's student body is therefore revealed in the fact that more than two-thirds of them are interested in going beyond the baccalaureate degree into tbe gradu­ ate level of knowledge.

The University of Tennessee at Martin has experienced dramatic growth in enrollments in the current decade, almost tripling in numbers, making this campus the fastest growing in the state on a percentage basis. At the beginning of the 1960's, enrollment at Martin was approxi­ mately one thousand; now the enrollment ex­ ceeds three thousand. To accommodate t his growth, U-T's campus planning expertise has been applied in full measure at Martin, provid­ ing new academic and service buildings on a large scale.

An Urban Renewal Project, launched in 1963 and completed five years later, has provided 135 acres of needed land, en.abling the Knoxv ille campus to ex­ pand rapidly enough to accommodate rising enrollments. The picture above shows the Urban Renewal Area prior to the beginning of the project; the lower photograph hows the same area today, blossoming with major aca­ demic and student services buildings. Physically dominating the new cam­

pus area is 14-story McClung Tower. office building of the $4,500,000 Hu­ manities and Social Sciences complex, with its br oad plaza and statuary. The tower and 40-classroom building were first u 'ed in the fall of 1967.

Newest addition to the College of Agri­ culture ca mpus is the $'2,000,000 Plant Sciences Buildin g (below), which houses the Departments of Agronomy, Ag ricultural Biology, Forestry, and Horticulture.

U- T Sp ace In stitute at Tullaho ma vice programs offered in Nashville will be housed in a $4,000,000 U- T Nashville Center, to be constructed in the Capitol Hill Redevelopment Area. The new Center will replace the present Center at 810 Broadway, which has become inadequate for the expanding adult education and in-service training pro grams being offered. In addition to housing the growing evening school, which will soon offer bachelor's degrees in four areas, and the Graduate School of Social Work, the Center will be a training center for state and local government employees as well as a site for conferences, workshops, and other continuing education programs.

At Chattanooga The University of Chattanooga will become the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, the new U- T campus authorized by the 1968 State Le gislature and Tennessee Higher Education Commission, under a plan approved by the boards of trustees of the two institutions. The boards approved transfer of UC's faculty, staff, and properties to U- T on July 1, 1969, after further details of the plan are worked out by the administrations of the two institutions and after the 1969 legislature makes sufficient operational funds available. U- T will seek additional land for the new campus, and state capital outlay funds will go to construct additional buildings needed to offer new academic programs being planned.

This school, which offers studies leading to the M. S. and Ph. D. degrees, is designed to prepare prospective teachers in medical colleges and scientists for careers in biomedical sciences research. It was opened in the fall of 1966 and funds have been earn'larked to construct necessary buildings.

At Kingsport

Early in the decade, U-T establis hed the Kings­ port University Center in cooperation with East Tennessee State University to serve educational needs of the adult working population of the area. Through U- T's Graduate School, the Cen­ ter offers study pro grams in science engineering, and business leading to the master's and doctor's degrees. Capital outlay funds have been desig­ nated fo r construction of a building to house the Center. T

Outstanding achievements of The Un iversity of Te nnessee during the past biennium are the heritage of an institutio n that traces its origin back to 1794 - when Geo rge Wa shington was serving his second term as President of this nation. During the 1969-70 school year, U- T will observe its 175th anniversary as the 27th oldest institution of higher education in America. Fittingly, the institutio n begins this new era of service in a new ro le - as a state-wide university system. Th us with added strength and prestige, it is destined to reach even greater heights in the future.
