Dungeons & Dragons: It’s not just for nerds!
March 8th @ 11 AM in the Johnson Hall Auditorium
Join the College of Business for the spring semester’s Tech Talk series!

We will feature a different guest speaker each session, giving each 17 mins to present and allowing time for discussion, questions, etc.
Real connections with the TN Tech family of faculty and staff are becoming increasingly important in student persistence efforts. As you explore and engage in transformational experiences on campus, why not come see a side of us that is both engaging and potentially transformational.
Any questions about this event can be sent to Clay Wesley at cwesley@tntech.edu.

I Heart Tech Students Spotlight: College of Fine Arts
The College of Fine Arts is focused on “value-added experiences” so that students may have a rich, full fine arts experience and take advantage of the many offerings in the mid-south. Field trips will allow students to experience art, music and culture in Nashville, Atlanta, Chattanooga, Knoxville and beyond at little or no cost to the student. Many Tech students do not have access to these cities, and arts events are either cost-prohibitive or not easily accessible. Fine Arts students should have a rich experience beyond Cookeville, and field trips offered by the college provide a safe way to travel together, an experienced guide for events and tours and a safe way to return to campus.
Any gift of any amount to any area made online at https://1915.tntech.edu between Feb. 14 and Mar. 28 counts in the “I Heart Tech Students” total. You can choose to give to the College of Fine Arts or to an area on campus that is meaningful to you. Visit https://1915.tntech.edu to learn more.
