He’s got his backpack, his football, his net, and all the Pioneer charm — it’s the Zeke Action Figure you didn’t know you needed!

But wait… one accessory spot is intentionally left open. Why? Because it’s for you — the future Pioneer — to choose your own path. Whether it’s science, the arts, education, or something entirely new, Tusculum University has the tools to help you take that first bold step.

At Tusculum, we believe in bold beginnings and meaningful moments — and no one represents that better than Zeke.

From Steve Schultz, Director of Arts Outreach at Tusculum University

It’s that time of year—the Class of 2025 is making college decisions, and I’d like to take a moment to speak directly to my neighbors here in Greene County.

Here’s something to consider: for every 10 students who attend Tusculum University full-time, approximately $200,000 flows right back into our local economy. That’s not just tuition—it’s housing, food, local businesses, service projects, and so much more.

With over 500 high school seniors graduating in our county alone, we have an incredible opportunity to invest in both our students and our community at the same time. And here’s the thing: when you compare total cost—including fees, housing, and meals—Tusculum is almost always the most affordable choice.

My family has seen firsthand what happens when this community supports its own. So if your student is considering staying close to home for college, I’d love to personally show you around campus—and yes, I’ll even take you to visit the World’s Best Financial Aid Office™.

Let’s talk.

Together, let’s help students thrive—and keep our community strong.

"Let all that you do be done in love." – 1 Corinthians 16:14 ✨

Wishing you a season of growth, joy, and wonderful spring learning here at Tusculum University.
