The iconic riverfront in downtown Memphis had an orange glow on the night of Nov. 21.
That’s because the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and the University of Tennessee Foundation partnered with Memphis Bridge Lighting, Inc., to light the Hernando de Soto Bridge and the Harahan Bridge across the Mississippi in orange for one night. We did this to honor UT Health Science Center’s roots in Memphis and draw attention to our position as the state’s academic health care institution.
