CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – A University of Northern Iowa tradition is returning this summer with a new limited-edition design and a mission to support student success.

TC’s Tee, now in its fourth year, has raised more than $17,000 for UNI students since the program launched. Proceeds from each shirt benefit the UNI Students First Fund, providing financial support to current and future Panthers throughout their college journey.

This year’s design, “Hail Our Panthers,” features bold typography and imagery of a panther on the prowl, celebrating UNI pride and tradition. Like previous TC’s Tee designs, this year’s shirt will only be available for a limited time before it is retired at the end of the 2026-27 academic year.

The new design will make its first major appearance at the Iowa State Fair, and will be available for purchase beginning Aug. 13 at the UNI booth in the Varied Industries Building. Following the fair, TC’s Tee will be available at the UNI Bookstore, Cedar Falls Scheels, Bozz Prints in West Des Moines and online at bozzprints.com.

Each year’s TC’s Tee offers Panthers a chance to show their UNI pride with a design that won't be around forever, while helping provide resources for students. Previous designs can be viewed in the TC’s Tee Vault.
