More than two dozen Tennessee student-athletes are celebrating their college graduation this week, participating in commencement ceremonies at Thompson-Boling Arena.
Of the 26 Vols and Lady Vols receiving their diplomas, seven student-athletes have completed Master’s degrees.
Also among the newest crop of UT student-athlete graduates are a pair of former standout performers who put their degree progress on hold to pursue careers in professional sports. They recently re-enrolled in the SouthEast Bank Renewing Academic Commitment (RAC) Program to complete their degree requirements. This semester’s RAC graduates are football player Eric Gordon (2010-12) and men’s basketball player Isiah Victor (1997-2001).
The list of degree programs completed by this collection of Tennessee grads includes Communication Studies, Finance, Kinesiology, Animal Science, Public Relations, Recreation & Sport Management, Supply Chain Management and other disciplines.
