Located at 1900 Alumni Way, just west of Hardy M. Graham Stadium, UT Martin’s new Alumni Center will provide a welcoming gateway to campus and will project the inviting atmosphere UT Martin alumni and friends know and love. The building will reflect the personality of UT Martin, providing a warm, comfortable place that will evoke many fond memories for our guests. The on-campus center will give UT Martin an opportunity to familiarize students with the UT Alumni Association, the Office of Alumni Relations programs, preparing them for future involvement and support of the association and university as loyal alumni. The location makes it convenient for alumni and friends to visit campus when they return to UT Martin for alumni and university events.

But, the Alumni Center is just the beginning. Alumni involvement will only be enhanced by the realization that, as an alum, you have a place to call “home” when you return to your alma mater, the University of Tennessee at Martin.
