Trenton Upchurch Information Communication Technology, 2021 Director of Programming at WRFL/Gen.G Esports Partnerships “ICT came out of nowhere as an option for me. I was exploring campus during orientation, and they had a booth set up in White Hall where I met a few professors who explained to me what ICT was for, how it differed from traditional CS degrees, and why it was a good fit. It made sense, and by the end of my first semester I was committed. Graduating with a CI degree, especially in such a technologically-driven era, is something I never expected when I came to UK. I can’t be more grateful to have found my life’s calling through a chance meeting in the summer of 2017.” Viewbook 2021-2022 | 9
