As a key step in shaping our 2026-2031 Quality Enhancement Plan, we recently carried out a survey with faculty, staff, and students. The survey featured twelve potential topics, inviting participants to choose and rank their top eight in order of importance. You can now access the findings of the survey at Tennessee Tech’s QEP Topic Selection Survey Results.

Support The Oracle on Giving Tuesday
Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday!
On this day of giving, Tennessee Tech will highlight a campus tradition that has promoted free speech, shared campus news, provided experiential learning opportunities and served as a written record of university history for nearly 100 years.
On April 24, The Oracle newspaper will turn 100. And on Nov. 28, we will ensure it has the funding needed to thrive for another 100 years.
If you give $24 tomorrow (to honor 100 years of The Oracle, from 1924 to 2024), you will receive a special 100-year anniversary tumbler featuring the original Tech Oracle masthead!

“Waking Up”: Abby Ramaker Senior Thesis Exhibition
“Waking Up”: Abby Ramaker Senior Thesis Exhibition
Senior Thesis Exhibition for Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting
Join Abby Ramaker, at the opening of her senior thesis exhibition of oil painting. The exhibition is Dec. 1 – 8, 2023, in the Bryan Fine Arts Building at Tennessee Tech University. Artist reception on Dec. 7, from 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Abby’s body of work explores the transformations we go through as people and the light we discover within and around us during those times of change. To her, painting is a language that can translate emotions that cannot be expressed any other way. This exhibition speaks to the resiliency of the spirit within oneself to guide them through dark times. “It’s about hope, rebirth, and ultimately healing.”
The event is wheelchair accessible, and snacks will be served. For any further interest you can check out her Instagram @ramakerabby.
