OUTSTANDING ALUMNI AWARDS – The University of Tennessee at Martin presented homecoming awards to (l-r) Christopher Pierce, originally from Savannah; Mary Katherine Hill, of Memphis; and Bill and Rosann Nunnelly, of Nashville, during the annual Chancellor’s Brunch and Alumni Awards Program held Nov. 2 in the Paul Meek Library. Pierce received the 2019 Outstanding Alumni Award, and Hill received the 2019 Outstanding Young Alumni Award for their achievements in their respective professions. The Nunnellys were honored with the 2019 Chancellor’s Award for University Service after bequeathing UT Martin with $22 million, the largest gift in university history. These funds provide scholarships to students from rural Tennessee counties. The award winners are pictured with Hollianne Carver and Chancellor Keith Carver (right) and Mary Katherine Hill’s son, Lucah.
