One of our first initiatives has been to create a list of demands in order to increase student access to basic needs on our campus. We are hoping they will be met by the end of the semester. Stay tuned as we post more specifics about each demand!

A lot of people will be mad at those protesting students without stopping to ask them what they’re upset about in the first place, which is unfortunate.

There will be news stories about that tonight. Right now I’m gonna cover the game. But those students are protesting racism. And they have more than enough evidence to back up their case. But I’m covering the game right now.

That’s how nonviolent protests work. You pick times and places where people will see you. But, again, I’m gonna cover the game right now.

I could give 2 shits what they are upset about. Not the correct time or place.

As a @tennalum I am SUPER DISAPPOINTED in this response. Perhaps so much so that I will rethink giving to the @UTKnoxville fund. As an attorney and a person with access to @Google I know that hate speech is not protected in the constitution. #failed

Vice Chancellor Carilli on the blackface incident: “I would be hard pressed to expel a student over exercising their First amendment right.”

@tennalum @TNAlumnus All ALUMS: Please take notice of @utDivMatters response to the blackface incident. Giving to @UTKnoxville is supporting this position. This is a weak position unbecoming of our school. #MoneyTalks
