They’re baaack. The fresh-faced, optimistic, energetic young people have infiltrated the campus of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Some are adults and returning students while others are away from home for the first time. Make an effort to welcome, embrace and show them some love Knoxville. They are going to need their hair and nails did, locs and haircuts maintained, a place to worship, mama’s soul food, and most of all – a village to help them navigate their temporary home. Let’s step up to the plate. Welcome, embrace and support them on their journey. You could be an anchor of support on their journey. Photos by David “Pug” Fuller
