 2 Opening Remarks
From The Association President
I Wow! \What an amazing year!
I have experienced so many incredible moments, whether it was addressing graduates at Com-
  A - is A mencement, induction of 20 outstanding UK alums into the I·Iall of Distinguished Alunmi, the
  presentation to six professors of the 2010 Great Teacher Award, presiding at the reunion celebra-
g y tion ofthe Golden Wildcats, attending the Lyman T ]ohnson banquet, or rallying the big blue
faithful at pep rallies in Nashville for the Music City Bowl and the SEC basketball tournament. I
  cant express how exciting and exhilarating this year as the president of the UK Alunmi Associa-
4 tion has been.
  I have been privileged to serve this great university for the past year. There are so many won-
derful things happening at UK. Recruiting, educating and graduating our youth for future lead-
ership roles in our communities continues to be the focus ofthe institution. The administration
is also charting an aggressive path toward becoming a Top 20 public research university This is
such avital initiative to the people ofthe Commonwealth because achieving this status will
mean healthier, wealthier and more educated citizens.
Alunmi can play a critical part in the continued excellence and growth ofthe university
There are various roles through which we can support UK, whether it is with our time as avolunteer recruiting the best and brightest
students, using our leverage with state legislators, supporting President Todds scholarship initiative and/ or through providing gifts. In
addition, we must be positive advocates for the University of Kentucky The theme of my presidency has been “Reach Out — Spread the
Word.” Our influence as alumni is far-reaching. We can speak truthfully and from the heart about how this institution affects our lives
and the positive ways the university is impacting the lives of Kentuckians today and for the future. The most powerful messages are
those communicated through personal associations. Be a strong ambassador for your university!
Iwant to take this opportunity to thank everyone who supports the association, especially Stan Key and the association staff for their
dedication, creative ideas and incredible work ethic. I truly appreciate our board of directors whose loyalty and diligence represent UK
alunmi throughout the world in the best possible way I also am grateful for our club network and the leadership our club officers pro-
vide at the community level. Without your commitment, our hopes of engaging and connecting alunmi to the university would not be
possible.
The UK Alunmi Association represents the best interests and traditions ofthe University of Kentuclqz It was an extreme honor to
serve as your president.
Sincerely
Scott E. Davis

 2 Presidential Conversation
Recognizing Accomplishments & Sacrifrces
  Nearly 7,000 undergraduate, graduate, and professional students were honored at the Univer-
  { ° sity of Kentuclqfs 143rd Commencement on Saturday May 8, at Rupp Arena. The ceremony is
  always a university highlight, as we recognize the efforts and accomplishments of our students
— if fh L; , and their families who have sacrihced so much to make this moment possible.
    ie z ’ Commencement also provides me and my fellow UK alums the opportunity to reflect on this
  _;_ institutions storied history In this issue of Kmtuc/Q/Alumni magazine, you will have the occa-
ra   sion to learn more about some of the graduates who have helped add value to all of our degrees.
The University of Kentucky Alumni Association welcomed 20 new inductees into its Hall of
`I Distinguished Alunmi in April. Established in 1965 as part ofthe universitys centennial celebra-
T g tion, the UK Alunmi Association Hall of Distinguished Alunmi recognizes outstanding alumni
4 l for personal and professional endeavors and community leadership.
0 .0; . This years class was a particularly inspiring group, featuring the Hrst female chair ofthe UK
- >¢ - W Board of Trustees, a former Kentucky Governor and current college president, a business leader
who has a UK building named after him, and several other successful business leaders, researchers,
and educators. I hope you take some time and get to know this years class — they make me proud to be a UK alunmus.
This issue also allows us to focus on a group of students who have been part of this universitys history since the very beginning. UK
has a long-standing relationship with the men and women in uniform that bravely serve this country The universitys connection to the
military spans our history For as a land-grant university the institutions original mission charged us with teaching agriculture, mechan-
ics, and military tactics. Th this day UK has been one ofthe nations top producers of Army and Air Force leaders through the Reserve
Office Training Corps program.
With iconic buildings like Memorial Hall and Memorial Coliseum, UK has consistently honored the Commonwealths veterans.
Over the past year, UK established the Veterans Resource Center to continue that tradition of support by providing UKs military and
veteran populations with the service and assistance they deserve.
With two major wars taking place overseas, more and more military veterans are returning to the Commonwealth to pursue their
higher education goals. We feel it is incumbent on us, as Kentuckys flagship university to serve those who have bravely served us. The
center strives to ensure that our veterans have a smooth transition to college. \Whether they are entering college for the Hrst time, trans-
ferring from another school, or returning after a deployment, our Veterans Resource Center is excited to provide our veteran students
with the support and services they need to be successful here at UK.
Sincerely,
Lee T`. Todd ]r.
