Thanks to the generosity of UT alumni Jim and Judi Herbert, the Herbert College of Agriculture becomes only the third named college in UT's 224-year history and one of only two land-grant agricultural colleges in the nation to be named from a philanthropic gift.
This gift elevates the College into an elite group of the very best public land-grant colleges of agriculture in the nation.
The Herbert College of Agriculture is a partnership of the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
