Vols Making an Impact

A photo of three Political Science Alumni— Maria Hinson Tobin, Amber Sheets, and Lindsay McClain—talking at their homecoming visit.

In the Fall of 2022, the department co-sponsored a homecoming visit of three UT alumni that are making a difference in the global fight against poverty, food insecurity, and disease. All three women are working with organizations committed to improving the lives of those living in developing countries around the world. Maria Hinson Tobin, ’13, Amber Sheets, ’07, and Lindsay McClain ’09 joined us. Each is making a difference in the global fight against poverty, food insecurity, and disease through their work.
