Over the course of several weeks in 2020, several UTC students found historical artifacts in the Chickamauga Battlefield. Now, these artifacts can be seen on display in an exhibit at the Chickamauga Battlefield Visitor Center in Fort Oglethorpe, GA.

An arrowhead that may be 10,000 years old, bullets + cannonball fragments that trace back to the Civil War, and a knife from World War I are among the artifacts that were discovered by the students.
