For two days, students and faculty from across the university told their personal stories of strength, bravery, understanding and experience. Each wrote a specific thought or phrase on their body that encapsulated their story and afterwards their portrait was taken. A photo gallery of UTC\u2019s Dear World participants can be viewed at <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2k841WV\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2k841WV<\/a>.
