James L. “Bucky” Wolford, member of the UT Board of Trustees from Hamilton County, accepted Student Government Association President Bill Staley’s invitation to visit campus during Welcome Week.<\/p>\n
Wolford was named Distinguished Alumnus in 2005. He is President and CEO of Wolford Development, Inc.<\/p>\n
Wolford said he enjoyed the time he spent on campus. “Bill has been an excellent host, and I attended two classes with him,” Wolford said. “I have been away from the classroom for some time, and I do not have the interaction with students that I would like to have. It is good for me to see what is going on with the students at UTC.”<\/p>\n
Staley was glad Wolford accepted his invitation. “It was awesome to have Mr. Wolford walk in the shoes of a student in 2007. He is genuinely interested in communicating with students at UTC.”<\/p>\n
Wolford graduated from the University in 1969. When he was a student, Wolford was a member of Blue Key Society, captain of the UC Football Team, and a College Little All-American in football.<\/p>\n
“I am willing to do anything I can for students in my role as a UT Trustee. I want to help them with their experience at UTC,” Wolford said.<\/p>\n
Students interested in offering ideas to Wolford may contact the Student Government Association Office at 425-4296.<\/p>\n
