UT economists released a study today on the economic impact of the University-Knoxville on the TN state economy.
According to this study, because I am employed at UT, 1.8 other persons have a job, and $140,000 of income has been generated for others in the state.
And that doesn’t count the long-term impact of what I DO (support improvements in literacy education for adults) on emplyment and income and lowered costs.
Feeling like I’m pulling my weight here….can I have a discount on what I pay for gas?
