From “Ecliptic Education,” a story from the Spring 2024 Semester of UTC’s Rising Rock class.

Rising Rock is a multimedia storytelling class here on our campus, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

This Thursday on “Scenic Roots,” we’ll share the latest showcase of stories by Rising Rock students from this past semester.

Billy Weeks teaches the class in UTC’s Communication Department.

I spoke with him - and two students in the latest class: Bethany Cothran, one of the editors - and Koleby Gilbert, an editor for Rising Rock this fall.
