Students who will attend UTM in fall 2021 can expect a more traditional college experience as the university expands its in-person course offerings to open the semester.
Plans for more in-person classesand a more traditional opening at the main campus and five educational outreach centers coincide with increased COVID-19 vaccine availability and improving pandemic conditions in Tennessee. UTM centers are located in Jackson, Parsons, Selmer, Somerville and Ripley.
“Many have worked hard to bring us to a better place in this pandemic, and UTM is ready to take the next steps toward normal university operations,” said UTM Chancellor Keith Carver.
“We’re also realistic that conditions can change, so we’ll prepare to change direction if conditions warrant. Safety remains our top priority.”
The university will continue to follow recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Tennessee Department of Health and the University of Tennessee System for maintaining maximum safety.
