The @universityofky reached historic levels of enrollment and retention this fall. In a world where change is the only real constant, students and families are choosing us because we place students and their success at the center of everything that we do. https://t.co/Dl3vmw3BqG

The shooting of Jacob Blake shocks and saddens. We send continued prayers for his recovery and for his family. For us, this is another reminder of the urgent work we must do to dismantle systemic racism that exists here and elsewhere in our country. We must meet this moment.

Welcome back, Wildcats. Here at the @universityofky, we teach and support students so that they might lead lives of meaning and purpose. We are being asked now to do new things in new ways that have never been asked of us. We can do this. https://t.co/DRb99O19Vx

Recognizing Juneteenth as a holiday is just one of several action steps the university is taking to support, uplift and amplify our Black community. Friday, I had the opportunity to share these steps with our Board of Trustees.

Today, we commemorate #JUNETEENTH2020

We all want to learn more about African American history — a legacy filled with tragedy, inequality, resilience and survival.
