Meanwhile on campus, we'll celebrate Tiger Day as a nod to this 24 hours of giving. We encourage students, staff, and faculty to don their most spirited Tiger attire, and we hope families and alumni will sport shades of garnet and Columbia blue that day too. Additionally, we invite families to join us for virtual Community Conversations — opportunities throughout the day to hear from leaders within the Nashville community on a variety of inspiring, thought-provoking topics.
Help us reach our goal of 700 donations in just 24 hours and make a difference for all USN Tigers with an Annual Fund gift during the Tiger Give Back Challenge.
