The McClung Museum of Natural History and Culture is an academic museum on the UT campus. The museum serves the university and communities connected to Tennessee with onsite exhibitions, virtual instruction and collection-based research in both natural history and culture. The McClung houses four distinct collections: archaeology, malacology, paleoethnobotany, and arts and culture, providing research and teaching opportunities for UT students and staff. In addition, the McClung provides onsite, offsite, and virtual instruction for thousands of local K-12 school children each year in collaboration with Knox County and other neighboring school systems.
The Thornton Athletics Student Life Center is a state-of-the-art facility that houses comprehensive academic and career development services for over 500 student-athletes.

The center offers academic counseling services, proactive one-on-one mentoring and tutoring programs, career, professional, and leadership development programming, and community engagement opportunities.
The Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) at the University of Tennessee is a leadership development and Air Force or Space Force commissioning program. Cadets pursue their education, refining their talents and skills academically, while also committing to the Air Force core values, the AFROTC honor code, and the pursuit of an Air or Space Force commission. UT’s AFROTC cadets have a solid foundation and sense of pride in their heritage as students and as members of a long line of Volunteers who have gone before them and served their country with honor, dignity, and pride.
Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) is an educational program designed to provide the college student an opportunity to earn an army commission as a second lieutenant while completing the university requirements for a bachelor’s degree. The program provides leadership training that will develop the skills and attitudes vital to the professional army officer. Upon successful completion of the program and graduation from the university, ROTC cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants and enter either the active Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard component.
