After the dedication, Knoxville Center provided refreshments while honors students from UT-Knoxville conducted classroom tours and a jazz ensemble from the campus' music department entertained. The classroom, recognizable by an orange awning and a ''UT'' sign at the outside entrance, is located at the front of Knoxville Center between Ruby Tuesday's and Dillard's. An inside entrance is marked by an illuminated sign near Center Court on the lower level. The sign was designed by students in the Design Center of the UT-Knoxville Department of Art. Dr. Lynn Champion, director of community outreach and public service for the College of Arts and Sciences, said a variety of classes will be offered in the new facility.
First priority is held for credit classes.
Non-credit programs, including personal and enrichment classes, are second in line, followed by public service functions, Champion said. To find out about credit classes offered at Knoxville Center call the UT Evening School, 974-5361. Other information is available from the Office of Academic Outreach, 974-4676.
