Thankful for all our friends, partners and legislators that attend the annual legislative tailgate. Tennessee Exceptionalism is real! Blessed to be in higher education in Tennessee!
Congratulations to Governor-Elect @MarshaBlackburn and all our newly elected officials! And thank you to everyone who put themselves out there and stepped up for public service. It’s not always an easy thing to do, and we’re grateful to those willing to take it on!
This @nycmarathon was especially meaningful. I wasn’t sure I’d even make it 3 miles, so glad I lined up! Along the way, I passed one guy running his 25th NYC Marathon, another running his 46th, and a 90-year-old marathon runner named Marty! So many inspiring people and stories. And plenty of “Go Vols!” along the way, too!
Thanks to everyone who cheered me on!
Splendora! 🥺 We believe she is the fastest mare in the country, but the vets scratched her, so she didn’t get to prove herself again today. Congratulations to Nitrogen. It would have been a great match! We are so proud of Splendora and all her success. We’ll need to decide what comes next for her, but we will love her regardless. #BC26 #BoydRacing
Picked up my bib for tomorrow’s @nycmarathon! However, I’m reminded that if I were a horse, I’d be scratched! 😂 I do have bursitis and a tender hamstring, but if I can make it through 26.2 miles, it will be my 18th NYC Marathon. Only one way to find out: line up and try!
It’s hard not to be disappointed that Splendora won’t be running in tomorrow’s @BreedersCup Distaff, but her well-being comes first. She’s among more than 30 horses scratched from this year’s races. We were looking forward to seeing her run again at @keeneland, and I know many of you were, too. Anyone who knows Splendora knows she loves to run! We’re incredibly proud of our girl.
Thank you for all the messages and support. It means a lot to our entire team. 🧡 #BoydRacing
Tennessee needs 2,100 more mentors for TN Promise students by November 20!

Just one hour a month can make a huge difference. Please join me. Sign up today! tnachieves.org/mentors

Good food, fall weather, fun costumes and even better company!
The UTSA Fall Picnic was the perfect excuse to get together and celebrate the people who keep the UT System moving forward. Grateful for a team that works hard, lives out our Be One UT values and knows how to have a little fun along the way!

Every new healthcare professional has the potential to change a life. Preparing more to meet Tennessee’s growing healthcare needs is an investment in our state’s future.
In the latest president’s column with UT Health Sciences Chancellor Peter Buckley, we share how the new College of Medicine Interdisciplinary Building will help educate more healthcare professionals to serve communities across Tennessee for generations to come.
That’s what it means to be Made in Tennessee.
