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.

They are very inclusive to POC but are secluded from other races. The organizations related to POC support students very well but the school itself sometimes overlooks certain students and organizations. I wish Tennessee Tech would help to be more inclusive and support POC whether that be financially, academically, etc. On paper, they are supportive of all marginalized identities. I do not really feel represented here. I would tell a prospective student to know who you are and stick to it.
