Black vendors from around Chattanooga brought their food to Lupton Hall at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga on Thursday, Feb. 24, to take part of “Taste of Black Chattanooga.”\u00a0 Hosted by Student Success Programs, the Division of Diversity and Engagement and Africana Studies, it was part of Black History Month events on campus. \u201cWe love that we\u2019re not only highlighting these vendors that have committed to coming to campus, but we\u2019re also highlighting restaurants that are right around the corner from campus that students can walk to,\u201d said Crystal Edenfield, director of Student Success Programs at UTC.<\/p>\n
