There is also a Facebook group for students Virginia as a whole, where SIS students can meet to discuss assignments, plan trips, and generally become more
involved in information science. All regional VA cohort events will also be posted to this group, so it is a great one-stop place for information. To join this group, search SIS UTK - Virginia in Facebook.
