The Young Alumni Council fosters an important connection to the university and establishes a positive relationship between UT Knoxville and its young alumni.

Each member helps promote the interests of the university and its alumni, helps plan and coordinate young alumni events throughout the region, and works alongside the Office of Alumni Affairs to engage alumni with their alma mater.

Each member of the 40-person council serves a 2-year term with an option to remain for a third year. David Leaverton (’99, ’00) was named the first president of the Young Alumni Council In 2008, and now Scott Coop (’04) is president for the 2010–11 year.

Each member serves on one of the council’s five committees, Campus Relations, Events, Membership, Outreach and Marketing, and Philanthropy.
