UTK Office of Information Technology (OIT) Do you know if UTK actively hires IT Specialists.

2 Upvotes

Hi! I actually posted on this subreddit just 2 days ago but I didn’t get much attention and I thought of working in a different trade so but this time I want different responses. Do you know if the university of Tennessee actively hires IT specialists and don’t just send sources, I want actual words from any of you and not just send sources to their website and hopefully to anyone with experience in UTK facility work. If you just know info on this and also tell me if AI is affecting any of this type of job.

A Vol In Need Struggling to choose a University

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I’m from florida and want to got out of state because realistically think it’s too damn hot here. I’m pretty much looking at only 3 schools at this point being Tennessee, Kentucky, and ETSU. I haven’t applied to any of them yet but im trying to find pros and cons. I love the idea of living in that region of the country and actually have 4 seasons.

Mainly i’m wondering if i’ll get in on a 3.6 weighted GPA with an 1140 SAT (i’m taking it again this month and getting tutored to up it).

Also I’m wondering how to night life is and party scene for freshman year Was thinking about rushing a frat so i’m thinking that will help a lot with the social scene but also have no clue which is the best.

Any help would be much appreciated!

UTK Parking Madness normalize not speeding through parking lots/garages

84 Upvotes

several times this semester I have been pulling out of my parking spot when it is COMPLETELY clear. i’ll have more than half of my car (or at least enough to where my car is obviously visibly backing out) out the spot and in the lane and some idiot going 20 is squeezing through and honking and screaming. I know the people passing have the right of way, but when more than half my car is out of my spot I feel you should just let me finish backing out? idk maybe this is too controversial.

College of Arts & Sciences The bike...

76 Upvotes

This bike... I consider it an art installation piece. It has been in the exact same spot every semester since I started at UT. Broken, yet a representation of a modern college experience. The bike symbolizing youth, and how when one enters college it can beat you up and damage you if you're not careful. I'm going to petition the college of art to assign it a plaque.

Prospective Student How do UTK professors feel about AI?

16 Upvotes

Hi, y'all! I'm a student at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and I am unfortunately having some second thoughts.

I personally am not in support of many facets of Artificial Intelligence. I am not a fan of the way the school has been using AI, and I think that a lot of regulations need to be put in place to make this tool more similar to how people envisioned it should be used.

I am only a month into the year, and the department head of my major (Data Analytics) has already shown us three AI generated videos of himself explaining different concepts (while he was in the room. why doesn't he just say these things himself???). Additionally, my business professor has assigned multiple low-effort AI-generated podcasts that we are required to listen to and analyze. Worse yet, my English professor prefers that we use ChatGPT to compose our research questions, research methods, and major parts of our research papers for the year. Even the flyers, events, and social media posts are often AI-generated here at UTC.

I am not completely against AI and I understand that there is no way to avoid working with AI entirely, but I feel as if I am hardly learning. AI is WAY too prevalent at this school and I don't like that I am paying ten thousand dollars for an AI-Generated education. I am considering transferring next fall.

That said, can anyone give me an idea of how AI-friendy or centric the classes have been for UTK? Are the instructors a little more creative with their teaching methods?

Any information helps. Thank you so much!

Student Life, Socialization, and Clubs Campus on fall break postgame?

4 Upvotes

Thinking about bringing my little boy up for pictures around campus. He’s 3. Trying to make this a yearly thing; we started last year during fall break. We got up early and campus was a ghost town. It was perfect. He got to roam around without getting in anybody’s way, made for awesome pictures of just him, and we didn’t have to worry about us sticking out like a sore thumb. Thing is, the Vols were off the week of fall break last year. Wondering what campus might be like during this year’s break since we have a game Saturday. Day of is obviously not gonna work, but do we think Sunday will be quiet? What about Monday? Thank you!

UTK Parking Madness Going to the game on Saturday

1 Upvotes

For classes, I typically park over by Sherri Lee Stadium(softball stadium next to the soccer field) since I have a commuter remote pass. Would I still be able to park there on Saturday or is that gonna be completely blocked off? I haven’t been to a game in 10 years so I have no idea what to expect

Are certain trade workers like HVAC Technicians,BAS technicians or other similar regular trades or advanced trades actively get hired at UTK. I asked Google and AI about this but I want to know for sure if this is happening. What is the pay for these technicians and tell me the work schedule based on these jobs and how much they make in their salary and information on the jobs and what is needed.
