The Beyond the Classroom Challenge is a way for students to jump into a broad variety of FREE campus and community events, learning more about UTC, Chattanooga, and themselves—all based on their own schedules and interests.
How does the Beyond the Classroom Challenge work?
- Sign up to receive a weekly list of the best fun, free events on campus and in the community.
- Complete the Beyond the Classroom Challenge by the last day of exams in one of two ways:

- Complete any designated point-earning experience, then fully participate and reflect on five events.
- Complete a post-challenge reflection survey and turn in a photo before summer break
Why participate in the Beyond the Classroom Challenge?
