University of Tennessee at Martin — Attraction in Martin

This is only about the classes. I’m about finished with an online dual enrollment course with Cyber Literacy and I’ve had enough with it. The first three or four weeks, the lectures were good with video and slideshow lectures but the professor just stopped doing them after that week 4. I’m on the final week now, but I lost motivation to do this course after week 11.

We had issues all throughout the program of several professors running their classes all differently with the same syllabus making their classes harder than other professors and the leader of the MBA program didn’t care basically said that every professor could run their class how they wanted without any unity or...

My father, who turned 100 on July 4, 2017, was an education major there in 1935, where his favorite teacher was Lloyd King, Sr. The campus was called UTMB at the time. After graduating from there, he completed his degree at UT Knoxville, taught 5 years, and joined the Coast Guard for World War 1.

Many of my relatives went to UTMartin and loved it. My brother was the president of the business fraternity for a while. The teachers were outstanding and most of my acquaintances were the most pleasant people one could ever meet. I'm trying to one-day up the navy person who...
