Congratulations to all the educators who received L.E.A.D.S. Grants! Since so many educators don't have access to the funds they need to help their students or further their own education, these grants allow them to achieve their goals. Learn more here: hubs.li/Q02VLP1-0.

The UT Martin Selmer Center mourns the loss of Robert Lee. Robert has been an Adjunct Professor for the Selmer Center for nearly 25 years. His storytelling and humor will be missed most. Thank you, Robert, for your many years of service and the smiles and memories you gave us.
