Happy Homecoming Week Mocs! There is a lot of excitement on campus right now and the Office of the Dean of Students encourages you to celebrate and support the campus community by attending Lip Sync, the Monster Mash, Step Show, and the multiple athletic events over the next couple of days! For more information on Homecoming 2015 events, please visit utc.edu/homecoming.
In the spirit of community, we would like to remind you to critically think about the Halloween costume you may be thinking about wearing or the theme of the event you may be hosting this week. The Office of the Dean of Students expects that individual and organizational decisions preserve the dignity of all cultures and backgrounds, as we are an institution that values civility and inclusion.
Below you will find resources that we hope you and your friends will take a look at before leaving your residence.
