Sewanee: The University of the South
Sewanee: The University of the South, founded in 1857 by Episcopal dioceses across the American South, sits on a 13,000-acre campus known as "the Domain" atop the Cumberland Plateau, giving it one of the largest and most physically dramatic campus footprints of any small liberal arts college in the country. The university's continued Episcopal Church affiliation and governance structure, in which a group of Southern Episcopal dioceses collectively hold ownership, is unique among American colleges, and Sewanee's School of Theology trains clergy for the Episcopal Church alongside the undergraduate liberal arts college. Sewanee's English department and its literary magazine, The Sewanee Review, one of the oldest continuously published literary quarterlies in the country, have built a strong reputation within American literary circles disproportionate to the college's small size. The university's honor code, extensive wilderness domain available for outdoor recreation and environmental study, and its distinctive Episcopal governance structure have made Sewanee one of the most physically and institutionally distinctive small liberal arts colleges in the South.
VS
University of Tennessee, Knoxville
The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, founded in 1794, is the flagship of the state's public university system, and its Oak Ridge National Laboratory partnership, connecting the university to one of the Department of Energy's most significant national research laboratories, gives UT students and faculty direct access to major federal nuclear and energy research infrastructure. The university's engineering and business programs have built solid national reputations, and UT's agricultural and veterinary programs reflect its land-grant institutional founding mission, serving Tennessee's substantial rural and agricultural economy. UT's Lady Volunteers women's basketball program, built into a dynasty under legendary coach Pat Summitt with multiple national championships, made the university one of the most significant programs in the sport's history and helped drive broader mainstream interest in women's college basketball nationally. The university's Knoxville campus and its combination of major federal research partnerships, strong athletics, and comprehensive public university offerings have made UT the clear flagship of Tennessee's public higher education system, drawing students from across the state and increasingly from outside it as well.
