Matt Hamilton wasn\u2019t doing the Power C quite correctly.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was looking more like a \u2018Rock On\u2019 sign. I had to get a tutorial on the correct way to hold my hands and fingers,\u201d he joked.<\/p>\n

Hamilton, who graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in 1997 with a degree in environmental science, was trying to power up during a photo session at the Tennessee Aquarium.<\/p>\n

As part of Homecoming Week\u2019s \u201cUnder the C\u201d theme, Hamilton\u2014the Aquarium\u2019s curator of fishes\u2014and fellow UTC alum Danny Alexander recently spent a couple of hours participating in a photo shoot. Current UTC student Seth Little, a general biology major who works at the Aquarium as a reintroduction assistant, also took part.<\/p>\n

Photos were shot with Mocs mascot Scrappy in front of exhibits on the Indo-Pacific Reef, Secret Reef and Lemur Forest.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was excited and honored to join a few fellow Aquarium staff members in the UTC alumni photo shoot with Scrappy,\u201d said Alexander, who graduated from UTC in 1996 with a degree in environmental science.<\/p>\n

In 1998, he was hired full-time at the Aquarium, where he now is senior aquarist.<\/p>\n

For him, the photo shoot was a fun voyage back in time.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was like being on a quaint Hollywood set, hanging with some friends from the past and getting some photos with our old pal Scrappy,\u201d Alexander said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was hard not to envy Scrappy … still as charming as ever and not aged a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Little, a graduate of nearly McCallie School, said it was fun to pose with Scrappy.<\/p>\n

“Moreover, I think my favorite part of it was that I was representing both my school and my work, both of which I greatly love and enjoy,” he said.<\/p>\n

Doug Strickland, the Aquarium\u2019s communications content creator and photographer, also took photos of the UTC football helmet with ring-tailed lemurs, a radiated tortoise and in the Secret Reef\u2014held by volunteer diver Jimmy Lowrey.<\/p>\n
