  • Project AWAKEN is Ending

    Project AWAKEN is Ending

    Project AWAKEN’s Office of Violence Against Women grant comes to an end Tuesday, August 31, 2021. As such, Project AWAKEN will no longer be on campus to provide events, trainings nor advocacy services. It has been a pleasure to serve the Tech campus!

    If you want to stay involved in addressing power-based violence on campus and in the community, the Peer Empower Program (PEP) is a great way to get involved. Contact Nicole Cook (nacook@tntech.edu) to learn more. If you or someone you care about needs support services, help is available 24/7 through Genesis House (1-800-707-5197). Students can also seek help from the Counseling Center at (931) 372-3331.

    It’s on all of us to continue to support survivors and to stop power-based violence from happening in our community!

  • Update: Mail and Print Services

    Update: Mail and Print Services

    The university recently completed the bid process for the mail and print services contract because the existing contract was reaching end of term. Through this rigorous and informative process, the university has selected two vendors. Canon Solutions of America, Inc. will be contracted to manage the university’s mail services operation (renamed “The Post”) with oversight by Kerri Demeri, Director of Auxiliary Services. RJ Young will manage print services with oversight by Bobbie Maynard, Executive Director of Marketing and Communications.

    If there are any disruptions in service they will be posted at the location and communicated through Tech Times however, we are all working diligently to make this transition as seamless as possible and look forward to offering you the same great service you have come to expect, as well as future enhancements.
