New Building Update

Towering cranes mark progress on the college’s new 240,800-square-foot building, as the highly anticipated facility begins to rise from the ground. Betsy Adams, Haslam’s assistant dean of operations, strategy, and planning, reports that the project is reaching the end of design development, and each building floor is being finalized. “Next, we will work on the branding package and the furniture selections,” says Adams. “Those efforts will continue over the summer and into the next academic year.”

One year into the building campaign, more than 240 Haslam alumni, friends, and corporate partners have contributed, and more than 27 rooms have been named. Paul Clark, executive director of development (capital projects), says it’s not too late to make your mark on the project. “Many areas of the building have not yet been named, and opportunities are available at many levels to secure your legacy in the new Haslam building.” If you are interested in supporting Haslam’s students and mission, contact the Office of Advancement at haslamalumni@utk.edu.
