Operation Move In at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga kicks off Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 13-14, welcoming new students to campus and marking the official start of Fall Opening.
UTC’s first day of the fall semester is Monday, Aug. 18.
Hundreds of faculty, staff, students and community volunteers—including UTC Chancellor Lori Bruce—will be on hand during Operation Move In to help carry boxes, direct traffic and greet families as first-year and transfer students move into their new homes for the academic year.
To support the smooth flow of traffic and ensure a safe and welcoming experience for students and families, several road closures and parking restrictions will be in place during Operation Move In.
