Being in Knoxville is a great town both for professional reasons having, you know, major federal and state courts here in a great legal community and economy, but also from a student life perspective. There's great concert venues, there's incredible food, there's the Smoky Mountains, you know, just out your door.
It's about two hours away. Good day trip. Close to campus, there's Ijams Nature Center, chairs, walking trails, and river you can paddleboard and kayak in in downtown Knoxville. There's a ton of different restaurants in the market square area. That area also has farmer's markets. There's dog parks around there as well. There's a ton of different things to do downtown.
A lot of our students find that having a central downtown location is really great for student life and makes it really easy to find a place to really get together and have community. We have an excellent Bar Association, a lot of support for various areas of law. There are some major corporations that are headquartered here and have their own in house legal departments.
And generally there's just a an excellent Bar and rapport with a lot of the alumni and other attorneys in the area. We're just a few hours away from Nashville a few hours away from Atlanta, and not far from a lot of the western North Carolina and Virginia cities as well.
