Chancellor’s Circle

The Chancellor’s Circle honors donors who make an annual investment of $1,000 or more to the Chancellor’s Excellence Fund, the Chancellor’s Excellence Endowment, or the Campus Fund.

Chancellor’s Circle members provide the the flexible funds that enable the university to quickly respond to new opportunities, fill gaps, and advance new priorities.

Thanks to the Chancellor’s Circle, the university was able to make significant advancements over the years, including:

• Tri-Star Scholarships including the UT Promise Scholarship, the Tennessee Pledge Scholarship, and the Flagship Scholarship,
• UT’s Big Orange Pantry alleviating food insecurity on campus,
• Support for UT’s diversity initiative to remove barriers for underrepresented students,
• New uniforms for the Pride of the Southland Marching Band that are safer and more modern while still traditional, and much more.

Chancellor’s Circle members receive an initial lapel pin and plaque to commemorate our gratitude for their commitment to UT student success.
