Student and Family Engagement: Announcements

Beyond the Classroom Challenge
Sign up for the Beyond the Classroom Challenge for Fall 2022: Do you remember playing WORD Games at orientation and filling out a reflection card? That event counts toward the Beyond the Classroom Challenge, and you can see other events on this email that count as well. If you want to receive our weekly update and link to our list, sign up, or email us at think@utc.edu. Students who complete 10 events and reflections earn an award signed by our Chancellor, Priority Registration, and have a celebratory lunch with the other awardees.

MyMocsPASS
MyMocsPASS (Parent Access to Student Systems) provides an opportunity for UTC students to grant access to family members or other designated individuals to view certain student information online or to speak with specific departments regarding the student. The most common scenario for granting MyMocsPASS access is so that a family member can view a student’s grades, financial aid or account statement via MyMocsNet. This access is replacing FERPA PINs.
