The University of Tampa Diplomats have altruistically served the University campus and local community since 1983. The Diplomats are synonymous with service. Their prestigious reputation, upheld by the dynamic members, is recognized campus-wide. The members of the organization are leaders who serve as ambassadors to the University and encompass the ability to serve, lead, motivate, empower and educate their peers. Diplomat membership consists of some of the University’s top leaders. The members are selected based on their ability to work with others, leadership and charisma.

Diplomats facilitate blood drives, commencement events, Fall Weekend, Week of Welcome and other signature events for the campus every academic year. They also serve many departments on campus in the facilitation of their events, truly exemplifying their core value of service.

The Diplomats were established to proudly serve the campus community. We would like to extend an invitation to you to make use of our volunteerism in events you organize for the campus or the greater Tampa Bay community. To request the Diplomats, please complete a Diplomat Request Form. The Diplomats will follow these parameters to ensure they are able to assist you with your University function while keeping our members safe.

As you are deciding on the number of University of Tampa Diplomats to request for your event, please only request the minimum necessary number of diplomats needed to assist you. By having only the necessary number of University of Tampa Diplomats actively assisting you with your event, will help in providing exceptional service as our student leaders are very involved across campus and have limited time to contribute to additional events.

If you have questions about how The University of Tampa Diplomats can assist you, please email us at diplomats@ut.edu.
