Tennessee Tech Minecraft Server
Join the Tennessee Tech Minecraft Server!
We are a group of Tech students joined under a common interest of playing Minecraft. The server IP is ttumc.tech, but the server is whitelisted so you need to join our Discord at discord.ttumc.tech
The server runs on a plugin that is coded by Tech students and the server supports both Bedrock and Java Edition cross-play. The game mode is survival multiplayer or SMP and we do not allow griefing or theft. Feel free to join the Discord or email me at jtjones49@tntech.edu to get whitelisted and play on the server with other Tech Students.

Great Move-In – Student Organization Volunteer Registration
Move-In, Week of Welcome, and the start of the fall semester are only a few short weeks away! To facilitate a spirited welcome and smooth move-in process, we are inviting student organizations, athletic teams, departments, and others to assist residents on August 11-14. Volunteering during Move-In is a great way to help residents get settled quickly and happily while also increasing your organization’s campus presence.
Use the Great Move-In Sign-Up to register your organization. Please be thoughtful about the number of slots that you are signing up for – it would be better for us to have too many volunteers than to have less than expected.
If you have any questions, please contact Ben Stubbs at bstubbs@tntech.edu.
