In addition, the department sponsors judging teams which compete regionally and nationally in meat-animals, dairy, horses, and poultry competitions. Because UT Knoxville is a large university, there are many leisure and educational activities available, ranging from sports clubs to fraternities and sororities to religious organizations. Students are highly encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities because they help develop leadership skills which are beneficial in the job market.
