Jymon T. Scott, Class of 2023

The Tennessee Tech Black cultural center helps with finding a home away from home. With our admission numbers being low for students of color, having this place assists with the mental state of feeling appreciated. The school has mentoring programs called RACE and RACE Plus. That being said, there is division between races/ethnicities. Tennessee Tech should shine more light on our multicultural departments. I believe Tennessee Tech is supportive of students of color with other marginalized identities, and I feel represented. Prospective students should get involved and gain as much leadership and entrepreneurial skills as possible. Also, start networking now with professionals.
