Public Speaking Center and Tennessee Online Public Speaking Center (TOPS)

The Public Speaking Center was originally established as an on-campus public speaking center in the Communication and Information Building as a way to provide students private feedback. Now, there is a second location in John C. Hodges Library, and a mobile app, The Online Public Speaking app (TOPS). All of these resources are designed to help students in their speaking endeavors.
