He lived in the dorm (East Hall), pledged a fraternity (Sigma Phi Epsilon) and majored in biology with a minor in physical sciences, ultimately graduating in 1967 with a Bachelor of Science.โWe enjoyed the town,โ he said. โYou could walk to most restaurants and places youโd want to go. At first, I was looking at pre-med, but I had too much fun in Memphis and didnโt have the grades, so I went on to the pharmacy school (also in Memphis, but part of the University of Tennessee), which turned out well.โRead the full story here: lnk.bio/uofmemphis#MadeInMemphis

So, the president of the student body his senior year decided to go to law school (again, at Memphis), because โyou can do a lot of things with a law degree.โStrickland has no doubt that graduating from the The University of MemphisโCecil C. Humphreys School of Law helped his political career. Today, he is dean of the Law School, a position he accepted in March after his final term as mayor concluded at the end of 2023.Read the full story here: lnk.bio/uofmemphis#MadeInMemphis
