The morning program on February 21 begins at 9:20 at the Nashville Public Library. This early start creates a challenge for Knoxville students who would have to leave early that morning. SIS is willing to rent a UT van and drive students if enough students are interested, but, again, we would have to leave Knoxville around 6:30 a.m.

Contact Joel Southern if you are interested in attending and if you'd like a ride in the UT van.
