WELCOME TO ROCKY TOP! Welcome to the University of Tennessee and the great city of Knoxville. We couldn’t be happier to host you on Rocky Top! There’s never been a better time to be at UT. Over the last several years, our campus has undergone an amazing transformation to provide our students with some of the best learning experiences imaginable. We take great pride in being known as the Volunteers. We lead and serve others in our quest to make a difference across the state, the nation, and our world. I encourage you to visit the Torchbearer statue during your visit and reflect on what it means to bear a torch for others. When I moved to Knoxville to become the director of undergraduate admissions and the assistant vice provost of enrollment management, I fell in love with the campus and our particular shade of orange. I know you’ll love it here as much as I do. Go Vols!

Fabrizio D’Aloisio Assistant Vice Provost of Enrollment Management & Director of Undergraduate Admissions

OUR TRADITIONS

“ One that beareth a torch shadoweth oneself to give light to others.”—The Volunteer Creed

In our 225 years, we’ve established many meaningful symbols and beloved traditions— some distinguished and some just plain fun. utk.edu/aboutut/traditions Tennessee Volunteers References to the Tennessee Volunteers began during the 1800s, when Tennesseans volunteered soldiers en masse to the president’s call for service. Our football team earned the moniker in 1902, and it reflects our rich tradition of leadership and service. The Volunteer Creed The Volunteer Creed is displayed at the base of the Volunteer 24 MORE INFO: ADMISSIONS.UTK.EDU

statue, otherwise known as the Torchbearer, in Circle Park and is the university community’s guiding principle. Pride of the Southland Band More than 300 members strong and with a 150-year history, the band made the song “Rocky Top” famous. It leads the Vol Walk before each home game and forms the T that welcomes our football team onto the field. Big Orange Friday UT’s distinctive orange color is said to have been inspired by a cluster of orange-and-white daisies on the Hill. Every Friday, all members of the Volunteer family, wherever they are, wear

orange to celebrate and support the university. ‘Rocky Top’ “Rocky Top” has been UT’s heartfelt anthem since the early 1970s. On game days in the fall, the song resonates from Neyland Stadium as we sing it at the top of our lungs to cheer on our Volunteers. Smokey Smokey, our beloved bluetick coonhound, leads the Vols by running through the T before each home football game. A costumed version of Smokey first emerged in the 1970s and is a top collegiate mascot and star on and off the field.
