On August 29, UT will host Vol is a Verb Day, an inclusive excellence event designed to introduce first-year students to tools they can use to engage in meaningful and vital conversations while also celebrating each student’s unique story.  The day will include a carnival and entertainment and will culminate with Let’s Talk: Vol to Vol, intergroup dialogue that brings together students from diverse identities, communities, and social perspectives for a conversation about how to engage in meaningful dialogue that respects our university community.
