“What Happened This Past Week at UTM?” Week of September 1-6.

This week at UT Martin, streets were filled with friends, family and laughter as students and locals enjoyed the annual Tennessee Soybean Festival.
It started with a parade on Tuesday night. It included marching bands, clubs and organizations, small businesses, UT Martin sports teams, and lots of candy!

Throughout the week, there were vendors at the Street Fair and various performers: including the Piano Juggler, Disc-Connected K9’s, Break Shop Street Show, and One Wheel Wonder.

Additionally, on Friday night, students and locals enjoyed a concert by The Band Perry. On Saturday, the Soybean Festival ended with a performance by TLC.

Following their loss against the Oklahoma State Cowboys, the Skyhawks traveled to the University of Texas at El Paso on September 6 to play the Miners. The Skyhawks suffered a fumbling opening drive, boosting the Miners to score the first points of the game.

After a lightning delay, Skyhawk offense struggled until WR Bryce Bailey pushed into the endzone to tie the game 7-7. This marked the last time the Skyhawks would score until after halftime, with a score of 28-7.

After halftime, QB Jase Bauer made a big play for the Skyhawk offense. However, the Skyhawks were outpaced by the Miners, making the final score 42-17.

The Skyhawks play their home opener on September 13 at 6 p.m. against the 1-1 Southern Illinois Salukis.

David Barber, a UT Martin Professor in the Department of History and Philosophy, shares his opinion on the new Artificial Intelligence Policy. As a professor involved in the humanities department, he has observed recent changes in UT Martin’s implementation of AI.

The University of Tennessee is embracing artificial intelligence by having adopted their first AI Policy at the end of February. In April, UT Martin accepted the policy as well.

Many students at UTM, especially humanities students, are having AI integrated in their classrooms.

Despite this, there are always concerns of lack of student thought and effort, a decline in critical thinking skills and other potential dangers.
