UK is one of only seven public institutions in the United States with colleges of agriculture, engineering, medicine and pharmacy on a single campus.

“I toured about five or six schools, but literally as soon as I stepped on UK’s campus I knew that this is where I was going to attend college – I loved the feel, the Southern hospitality, the people and everything UK could offer me. My first impression? Everyone was so nice and friendly. The flowers were blooming and the campus was gorgeous. And while it can seem big at first, when you get involved in student organizations, you become part of a smaller community within the campus community. On the Student Activities Board (SAB), I’m the director of Public Relations and am in charge of helping to promote all of SAB's events, ranging from performances by comedian Kathy Griffin to a concert featuring B.O.B. and Jason Derulo and everything in between. My involvement includes directing a committee and working with other student leaders on campus. It’s an amazing experience to put on a great event for the student body, and so rewarding to see your hard work come together. Almost every night of the week there’s something going on around campus, whether it’s karaoke, movies, concerts or free food at various events. We also have great guest speakers, like the founder of TOMS Shoes. I was hoping to major in journalism, but during orientation I heard about the integrated strategic communications program and its public relations path. It sounded exactly like what I wanted to do. Once I graduate I plan to work for a magazine as a PR director. I definitely feel like UK has prepared me for my future. The professors are here to help you succeed. ISC majors are required to complete an internship and graduate with a portfolio; that way we have examples of our work and it gives us an advantage in the job market. I never would have guessed that my college experience would be so rich and fulfilling.”

“I chose UK because I felt like it had more opportunities available than some of the other schools I looked into. The academics are challenging, and there are hundreds of student organizations, so you can find your niche and really enhance your college experience. For most students, transitioning from high school to college is a big step. But it doesn’t have to be. Getting involved is the fastest way to meet new people and make friends, at least it was for me. Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity has given me a chance to give back by building houses for families in our community. Through K Crew, I’m able to help incoming freshmen get acclimated to the university and let them know about all the different clubs and activities out there.

UK is one of the few universities in the United States with all six health-related programs: dentistry, health sciences, medicine, nursing, pharmacy and public health.

I spend a lot of time at the library, which is the perfect place to study, but my favorite spot on campus has to be the Johnson Center, an incredible recreation facility where you can work out, play sports and relieve stress. There’s even a giant rock climbing wall. And unlike at some universities, you don’t have to be a graduate student to immerse yourself in research at UK. There are so many opportunities for first and second year students to be part of an exciting research community. I’ve had the chance to discover, experiment and observe world-class researchers who are now my mentors. It’s been a way to enrich my academic skills and broaden my mind beyond the classroom. The University of Kentucky is full of outstanding resources to help you grow, learn and succeed both academically and socially.”

out-of-state students. Coming to college is many students’ first chance to be on their own. Some students come to UK from just down the street, while others come from across the country. Wherever your roots are, the University of Kentucky will become your home away from home during your collegiate experience. UK is home to students from all 120 Kentucky counties, all 50 states and more than 100 countries. What does that mean to you as an out-of-state student? You’ll meet with people from different backgrounds every day, and you’ll learn about your new Kentucky home together. From the moment you step on campus, UK introduces students to Southern hospitality “Wildcat style” with K Week. K Week boasts more than 200 activities that help new students acclimate to campus. One highlight of the week is UK FUSION, a single-day event where more than 1,000 students, faculty and staff donate more than 5,000 hours of community service to the Lexington community. FUSION helps our university feel smaller and not only connects you to the campus community, but also to the beautiful city of Lexington.

Out-of-state students qualify for all of UK’s scholarship offerings. Through the Legacy Tuition Program, the University of Kentucky offers partial tuition awards to eligible non-resident undergraduate children of UK graduates. An eligible student is defined as a child whose mother, father or step-parent has earned a bachelor, graduate, doctorate or professional degree from the University of Kentucky; whose parent or step-parent is a member of the UK Alumni Association; and who would normally be subject to nonresident tuition rates. What is the best way to figure out if UK is the right place for you? Come visit us! The Visitor Center hosts information sessions and campus tours daily.

Reggie Smith Vocal Performance and Music Education Atlanta, Georgia - Senior

seeblue.com “I chose UK over several other institutions because when I first got on campus, I was overwhelmed by the beauty, open space and the friendly nature of everyone. The opera department and the faculty impressed me; they all worked together to create such a wonderful program. And that’s not just in the opera department; it’s in every department in which I’ve taken classes. I’ve made a lot of friends within the vocal and opera department. But my freshman year I made some good friends in the residence hall, and have met people through student activities that I still talk to today. After college, I’d like to pursue a professional career in classical vocal music, which will lead me to a bigger city, possibly Europe and different places around the world. My professors have made the entire experience worthwhile. I’ve worked closely with Everett McCorvey, who’s my private

voice instructor. He’s not only a fantastic teacher; he’s also been a mentor that I could talk to about life and about music. Because of the music faculty, I have been awarded a wonderful musical education, and also an education on life. I’ve visited some great places with the UK choirs including the Bahamas and Paris, France. Through the opera department I’ve traveled to England several times; we’ve been to Ireland, where I was able to sing and speak with boxing legend Muhammed Ali – that’s something I’ll never forget. We took a trip to Atlanta, which was a lot of fun because I got to sing for my mother and high school teacher. Because of the music department and faculty, I was able to sing for President Barack Obama when he was a senator and I’ve performed for the mayor and governor.”

“I came to the University of Kentucky from South Korea in 2008 and fell in love with Lexington, the Bluegrass and blue sky. I like the weather over here. It’s awesome. You can really enjoy each season – spring, summer, fall, even winter. Compared to colleges in South Korea, the University of Kentucky campus is much larger, and the W. T. Young Library is the best. I enjoy just sitting on the grass near there and hanging out. You can meet lots of international students. I’ve made friends from all over the world, including some from Korea. Everyone’s different, and that’s what I like about UK, the diversity. Kentuckians love basketball. I didn’t know much about it before I got here. But now I’m so interested and go to the games and cheer on the Wildcats! But there’s a lot more to do than basketball. You can enjoy all types of activities. One of my favorites is International Talent Night – a cultural diversity festival featuring students from other countries. The admission fees go to a charity, so it’s also a chance to help others while you’re enjoying the show.”

veterans resource center. Welcome Home Veterans! The University of Kentucky is extremely proud of its long-standing relationship with the men and women in uniform that bravely serve this country. From its founding as a land grant university in 1865, charged with teaching agriculture, mechanics and military tactics, to its continuing production of leaders for the Army and Air Force through the Reserve Officer Training Corp, UK has consistently contributed to the defense of freedom. The Veterans Resource Center was established to continue that tradition of support by providing UKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military and veteran populations with service and assistance. Our goal is to ensure that your transition to college is as smooth as possible. Whether you are entering college for the first time, transferring from another school or returning after a deployment, the Wildcat community welcomes you. The University of Kentucky Military Veterans of America (UKMVA) organization is comprised of student veterans dedicated to the recruitment, education and support of all veterans attending the university. The group provides

invaluable input on veteran issues to the administration and works diligently to promote veterans on campus. Ask your advisor about the UK 101 class designed specifically for student veterans. This class allows you direct access to an abundance of resources that will help ensure your time at the University of Kentucky is successful. Stop by the Veterans Resource Center for a hot cup of coffee, a computer lab or to talk to a fellow veteran.

“I came to school at UK because I’m really interested in aerospace and the promise it holds for our future. UK has the Space Systems Lab, so it seemed like a perfect fit for me. Where else do you have the opportunity to operate modules on the International Space Station and build orbital satellites? At UK, I balance school, homework and college life with operating an experiment in space; and I get to interface with NASA every day. My ultimate career goal is to be an astronaut. In working with NASA, I’m finding out what it takes to be part of that industry; it’s a chance to see the real world. In the classroom we study theory, circuit design, programming and everything else you learn in computer and electrical engineering. Then we apply it in the space lab, actually building satellites so they work in orbit. There are all kinds of problems we get to solve. We’re fortunate to have world-class research professors who allow us to work along side them on groundbreaking projects. I truly enjoy representing the university and the state on a national level in space itself. It’s a rare opportunity, one most other universities simply don’t have.”

see the bluegrass. Lexington is the ideal college town, but it’s also so much more. Home to over 280,000 residents, it boasts an impressive combination of cosmopolitan amenities and small town charm you won’t find just anywhere. With 400 magnificent horse farms surrounded by gently rolling hills and wood plank fencing, it’s easy to see why this is the Horse Capital of the World. As you transition into life as a UK student, you’ll discover that Lexington offers a variety of outlets for students to get away from the hustle and bustle of campus life. Nothing gets your heart racing like seeing the thoroughbreds run at Keeneland, one of America’s most beautiful tracks and a National Historic Landmark.

College Day at Keeneland is a semiannual tradition when students enjoy free admission, T-shirts and have a chance at winning $1,000 scholarships awarded throughout the day. A vibrant arts and culture scene are an important part of Central Kentucky. In fact, the historic Opera House, built in 1886, is one of the region’s premier performing arts centers.

venues feature an eclectic mix of local and regional artists. When it comes to restaurants, Lexington really cooks. From hot browns to burgoo, burgers to comfort food, you’ll find something for every college student’s taste and budget. And many restaurants are just steps from campus.

For a movie experience unlike anywhere else, visit the Kentucky Theatre, an art film house that first opened in 1922.

Fayette Mall, Kentucky’s largest, features over 120 stores including most national retailers. What’s more, an array of charming boutiques and one-of-a-kind local shops are right near campus.

If you’re searching for live music, you don’t have to go far. UK hosts great bands on campus throughout the year. Rupp Arena attracts a wide range of big-name rock concerts and top country acts. Plus, smaller downtown music

After graduation, there’s really no reason to leave. That’s because Forbes magazine named Lexington the 5th Best Place for Businesses and Careers. And according to Women’s Health, Lexington is the 8th best city for quality of life for women.

CNN named the Lexington-Fayette county metro area one of the Top 10 "Brainiest Cities" in the nation

Plan your campus visit through the Visitor Center, which includes a one-hour information session followed by a 90-minute walking tour.

Visitor Center

Main Building, Plaza Level (859) 257-3595 ukvc@uky.edu www.uky.edu/VisitorCenter General Information: (859) 257-9000

With a UK student as your tour guide, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see the main academic area of campus, a residence hall, the Johnson Recreation Center and the W.T. Young Library. Schedule Your Visit. Campus visits through the Visitor Center are geared towards prospective undergraduate students and their families. Visitors of all ages are welcomed. To meet with an academic advisor or to observe a class, contact the Visitor Center at least two to three weeks in advance. To schedule your visit, call or see our website.

Please note that the Visitor Center is only open on select Saturdays during the academic year and is closed on all university holidays. If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it to campus for an official visit, look on the website for details and a selfguided campus tour. Transportation. Lexington is home to Blue Grass Airport, which services daily domestic flights to and from dozens of major cities. It is a convenient commute from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport and the Louisville International Airport. Visit www.uky.edu/ VisitorCenter for directions, information on lodging or transportation to campus.

You should allow approximately three hours for your visit.

see exhilaration. UK is world renowned for men’s basketball and its seven national championships. (After all, where else do fans camp out to get tickets to the first practice?) The team plays its games at Rupp Arena, in front of 24,000 passionate fans. If you’ve never been to a game, it’s an atmosphere you have to experience. Fortunately, that’s easy to do. Even though basketball is one of the toughest tickets in town, all UK students have access to affordable tickets through a student lottery system, and seats are under $10 – not that you’ll be sitting. Commonwealth Stadium, with 70,000 fans becomes Kentucky’s third largest city when filled to capacity on gameday and is home to the Wildcat Football team. And while each game lasts a few hours, the tailgating and celebration last all day. Blue body paint is optional; screaming and cheering are not.

If the athletic events don’t get your adrenaline pumping, our cheerleaders will. That’s because the UK cheerleading squad has won an unprecedented 18 national championships. Lately, they’ve had a lot to cheer about. Within the past few years, most UK teams have won conference championships, been ranked in the nation’s Top 25 or competed in the NCAA Tournament in their respective sports. When you’re a UK student, you become a Wildcat for life. No matter where you live after graduation, whether it’s in another state or even a different country, you will always be a “citizen” of Big Blue Nation.

how to apply. Undergraduate admission at the University of Kentucky is designed to be consistent with the University’s mission of teaching, research and public service. The University of Kentucky seeks to enroll an academically talented student body that enriches the learning community and is representative of the diverse society in which we live.

Enrollment in the freshman class is limited. The University of Kentucky receives many more freshman applications than can be accommodated. Applicants are offered admission on a competitive basis, with those meeting the University’s selective admission criteria receiving first offers.

tuition, financial aid and scholarships. Student Financial Aid. UKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office of Student Financial Aid administers more than $200 million annually in need-based financial aid funds awarded to University of Kentucky students. Funding from federal, state and university financial aid programs is available to students who demonstrate need for financial assistance. To be considered for need-based financial aid, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Students are encouraged to file the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

If you are unable to complete the FAFSA online, paper FAFSA forms are available in December in your local public library or post office. You may also request a paper copy by calling (800) 433-3243. Financial Aid deadlines are priority deadlines, as all aid is subject to fund availability. If you file after these dates, you will receive assistance, but your award will be less because some funds will already be exhausted. All students are eligible to borrow at least an unsubsidized federal student loan.

The Catalyst Scholars. The Catalyst Scholars program is available to undergraduate Kentucky residents who enter UK in the fall of 2007 or later who are eligible to receive a Federal Pell Grant and whose parental income is at or below 150 percent of the federal poverty level. The scholarship, which is renewable, provides up to $2,020 annually. The Catalyst Scholars Program is need-based and is administered by the Office of Student Financial Aid.

Academic Scholarships. The University of Kentucky Academic Scholarship Program offers awards to outstanding students who demonstrate the potential for superior academic performance. The following scholarships will be awarded to eligible students, provided the student is both admitted and has a qualifying test score and GPA on file with the Office of Undergraduate Admission by March 1, 2012.

Cumulative GPA is based on a 4.0 scale. The Flagship Scholarship. Students who earn a 26 or 27 on their ACT and a 3.30 unweighted GPA will automatically receive a $1,500 scholarship.

Legacy Tuition Program. Through the Legacy Tuition Program, the University of Kentucky offers a partial tuition program to eligible non-resident undergraduate children of UK graduates.

Degrees from a community college or parents who completed their medical residency program at UK (but no degree) are not eligible. New first-time freshmen will be eligible for the Legacy Tuition Program for a total of eight semesters. Transfer students are eligible through the equivalent of their eighth semester of undergraduate study. Semesters of prior college enrollment at other institutions are considered in the total eight semesters.

the office of residence life The Office of Residence Life is responsible for hiring, training, and supervising the staff members who live in the residence halls, including Hall Directors and Resident Advisors (R.A.s). We staff and manage 22 undergraduate residence halls, five Greek Houses, and the Max Kade German House. The Office of Residence Life employs over 300 professional and student staff members who play a key role in helping to shape the lives of all the students who live on campus.

The primary focus of the Residence Life program is to support the educational mission of the University by supporting students in their academic and personal goals. The department does this by providing service to students in four major areas: (1) Helping maintain safe and secure living environments, (2) Developing leadership and encouraging involvement both on and off campus, (3) Creating inclusive environments where all students feel supported and feel part of their community, and (4) Monitoring studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; academic progress and connecting them with out-of-classroom academic support and other resources.

safe and secure environments

One of the most important functions of the Residence Life Office is providing for the safety and security of residents who live in undergraduate housing. The issue of safety and security is one that is constantly at the forefront of all of our activities, including: (1) Staffing: A reliable staffing structure has been developed to make sure that staff are always available, and that staff members always have back-up and support from supervisors. (2) Training: Both in fall training and throughout the academic year, staff members receive instruction on procedures related to safety issues and resources to help them respond to emergencies.

(3) Programming: Much of the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programming resources are dedicated to teaching students about safety and security issues on campus and beyond. (4) Policy Enforcement: Enforcement includes conducting fire safety inspections, enforcing the visitation and escort policies, un-propping doors, and bringing students through the judicial process when they engage in acts that threaten the safety of themselves or others. It also includes monitoring the physical condition of the buildings and reporting any maintenance concerns that could pose a safety threat.

leadership development and involvement

Another role of the Office of Residence Life is to provide opportunities for students to be involved in leadership roles on campus. These leadership roles can include involvement in their residence hall government, the Resident Student Association (an umbrella organization for all residence hall governments), or National Residence Hall Honorary, involvement as officers in Greek houses, or involvement in paid student positions such as Assistant Hall Director, Senior R.A., Resident Advisor, or Desk Clerk. Residence Life also encourages involvement in the over 400 student organizations on campus. Residence Life staff members provide programs for students in the residence halls that introduce them to different

the office of residence life groups on campus and make them aware of all the different opportunities there are for involvement.

inclusive environments

In order for all students to get the most out of their on-campus experience, everyone must feel welcome and included in the life of the campus. The University of Kentucky, including on-campus housing, becomes a much stronger educational environment the more there is involvement from students of all different backgrounds and experiences. The Office of Residence Life’s commitment to contributing to this kind of vibrant, educational environment is expressed in the following statement: Residence Life Commitment to Inclusion The Office of Residence Life is strongly committed to diversity and inclusion. A vital part of the mission of Residence Life is to create communities where our students and staff represent diverse characteristics and backgrounds and where all members feel included. The creation of such communities is essential to the personal growth of students and to their preparation for active, global citizenship. We believe students are most likely to succeed in an environment where everyone is welcome and involved. We give students the opportunity to work and live with people from different backgrounds, and in the process, we encourage them to learn from one another in an atmosphere of mutual respect. We seek to foster this atmosphere through our employment of staff members from diverse backgrounds.

support for academic success

One of the greatest benefits of living in the residence halls is the opportunity for students to have a meaningful experience and interactions with one another outside of the classroom as a community of learners. Every student and staff member in the residence halls should consider themselves to be part of an active learning community. In order to develop this community, every Residence Life staff member serves as a facilitator of learning by striving to:

• Create and maintain supportive learning environments which include ongoing educational opportunities and experiences. • Minimize the barriers to students’ academic success by providing easy and immediate access to important educational information and resources. • Promote individual growth and a sense of belonging through the creation of inclusive communities. The Office of Residence Life also partners with other academic and student affairs units on campus to provide specialized living learning communities as part of the Living Learning Program. Living learning communities are designed to bring together students with similar interests, goals, and classes. At the University of Kentucky, there are many different specialized communities in the Living Learning Program which allow students to live together, take classes together, and participate in shared programs and activities.

Matt Cutts: Software Engineer Mountain View, California To many people, Matt Cutts is simply known as No. 71. But in the high-tech world, that means he is much more than just a number.

basketball games. "There's nothing like the spirit of basketball at UK," Cutts exclaims. "I would go to as many games as I could, just to be in Rupp Arena."

As one of Google's first 100 employees, Cutts was on the ground floor of what is today the world's largest search engine. Google is a company that operates each day under the premise that helping people access the information they need when they need it can literally change the world for the better.

During graduate school, Cutts read about an exciting new company called Google and found himself making the transition to California's Silicon Valley, the center of the high-tech world. When Cutts started with Google it was an aspiring internet startup. Today, the company employs tens of thousands of people and Cutts plays a critical at the company.

And Cutts, a native of Morehead, Kentucky, gives much of the credit for his success at Google to the undergraduate education he received at the University of Kentucky. "There's no reason you can't get as good of an education at UK as anywhere in the world," said Cutts, a 1995 graduate. At UK, his study was aided by scholarships and academic honors, including a Singletary Scholarship, dean's scholarships and a Gaines Fellowship in the Humanities. Cutts says he also had the opportunity to work alongside faculty working with 3D imaging. Cutts also took graduate classes as an undergrad, conducting real research that fueled his interests. "I had the chance to not just see what grad school would be like, but see what the actual research is like," Cutts said. It wasn't all study, of course. Cutts says Lexington is a great college down with offerings like Keeneland Race Course and closer to campus, UK football and

As head of the Web spam team, Cutts works to ensure that people using Google get good search results, rather than spam. "It's different every day," Cutts says. "You never know exactly what the next crisis will be. So not only do you get a chance to feel like you are making a difference, but you get a lot of variety in your work." The importance of Cutts' work and the team he leads puts him frequently in the spotlight, interviewing with publications like Businessweek and The New York Times. But for Cutts, what's more important is that the work he does at Google helps people organize the massive amounts of information that they see, read or hear. "You know people can work more efficiently," he says. "We get e-mails saying, 'I was having a heart attack and I typed in heart attack symptoms and got the right answer fast and it led me to the emergency room.' We've literally had people come and say 'Google saved my life.' And that's the sort of thing where you just feel like, I can't believe I'm a part of this, I can't believe I'm helping and making a difference."

MEDIA ARTS AND STUDIES Lexington - KENtucky

During the week, Cathy Black spends her time negotiating with recording artists like BeyoncĂŠ and Lady Gaga to appear on the CBS Early Morning Show. But on the weekend, she thinks about returning home to Lexington. Such is the life for a CBS national producer and booking agent. A Lexington native, there was never any doubt that UK was where she would attend for college. It's a decision she's never regretted. "It just proved to be everything I thought it would be," Black says from the newsroom of CBS in New York City. "UK has something for everybody, and I think that's what really drew me to the school." In particular, Black cites the individual attention she received from professors in the College of Communication and Information Studies as being key to her success. Professors, she says, helped her line up internships at TV stations. They also cultivated her interest in producing. "They really just gave me an opportunity to earn credit while I was in school. They didn't limit me and when they saw the need for an internship program they developed it immediately," Black says. "The faculty was great. The department really honed in on each student and the individual things they were interested in and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I really appreciated. The professors there were really tuned in with each student and I really honestly wouldn't be here today at CBS News if it weren't for UK." Coming home reminds her of the education and opportunities she and other family members received at UK, opportunities that laid a foundation to work on a national stage at one of the country's most successful TV networks. "You're going to get support from a diverse group of students and professors. The opportunities that you're going to be offered, just based on my experience alone, are worth going there," Black says. "When people ask me 'Where did you go to school,' I'm like 'The University of Kentucky.' I bleed blue. I'm a Wildcat. It's everything that I thought it would be. I'm here because of the education I got at UK."

CATHY BLACK CBS TV Executive - New York NEW YORK)

Hazard, Kentucky When Will Nash was thinking about where to go to college, he had a world of options. A good student, with the potential of plenty of scholarships, the Glasgow, Kentucky native thought he would go out of state. But a family friend made him rethink his plans, "telling me I would get out of college what I put into it." It made all the difference. He chose the University of Kentucky. Four years later, after majoring in political science and economics, becoming heavily involved in student government, his fraternity and a host of organizations like the Center for Community Outreach, Nash was at a fork in the road. "I had an itch to do something big," Nash says. "I think that when you are ready to leave UK, you see the world before you and you want to find your niche." In one moment, initial plans to attend law school were put aside for another path. A conversation on campus with a recruiter for an innovative program called Teach for America convinced Nash to delay law school. Teach for America takes some of the brightest students from college campuses and puts them in some of the most impoverished schools in the country to teach for two years. The idea is simple: Bright, dedicated young men and women with a passion for learning and helping can make a difference in lives of kids who lack hope and direction. Nash moved from Lexington to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where taught middle school math. His seventh graders were performing at a fourthgrade level. The odds were stacked so high against some of the kids he was teaching; there were days he didn't know if he could keep teaching.

But something – usually a student slowly, but surely, making progress, defying those odds – brought him back each day. "I think every teacher has moments that makes you say, 'this is what I want to do the rest of my life,' and others that make you say 'I'm not sure I can come back tomorrow.' But every time I sat down with a student who was hard to invest in, or a student who I had worked really had with and showed them a graph of where they had come from and where they were now, I would get to see their face light up and they'd understand that it was through their hard work that they were able to achieve." But even though Nash was in a rewarding position far away from UK and Kentucky, Kentucky and UK were never far away from him. After his two-year stint with Teach for America, Nash wanted to continue his work helping kids…in his home state. Yet Teach for America didn't have a program in Kentucky. Nash says his experiences at UK, and the connections he had made, helped him choose his next path. Working with fellow Teach for America alums from UK and Kentucky, Nash has raised the funds and resources needed to start a chapter in Eastern Kentucky. "I had leadership opportunities that prepared me for the classroom. I was taught a commitment to not only the campus community, but to Lexington and all of Kentucky; a fire was lit in me for a greater level of service." That fire was first lit at UK, Nash says, because "the university has a really inclusive atmosphere – you are embraced with strong arms and you realize that you're part of something bigger than yourself."
