    , As the final days of my first year wind down, the record
*   V. shows that we have done much together. The admin-
    .·   ' istration is leaner and the reporting lines more direct. I’ve
      ‘ /· spoken to several hundred alumni, high school, civic and
  t if if _ other organizations about our vision for the University of
*· GI'!  l A Kentucky and the Commonwealth. We have conversations
" W., going on about the status of women and about diversity;
  . '  T ‘ “ about the University’s future and about defining Top 20

’"’· ~ — T 5 V ~   a “fix-it" committee that doesn’t wait to. . .well, fix it,

Scholars and Govemor’s School for the Arts graduates are
making a positive difference in our freshman class coming up.
You should be so proud of Jennifer Kasten of Nicholasville who spoke at Commencement and will
be off to London, England, on a British Marshall Scholarship this fall to the London School of Hy-
giene and Tropical Medicine.
lt was so gratifying to see the smiles on the faces of Julie Murray of Charleston, W Va., and Conley
Chaney of Pine Knot when Acting Provost Mike Nietzel and I went to their classroom to tell them
that they had been selected for the three—year, $30,000 Truman Scholars program. UK is one of four
2001 recipients of the Harry S. Truman Foundation Honor Institution Award for exemplary participa-
tion in the Harry S. Truman Scholarship program. UK has participated in the Truman program for
more than 20 years. Previous students selected for the honor have been Jay Varellas in 2001, Monica
Grant and Anthony Jones in 1999, Melody Flowers in 1998, M. Scott Coovert in 1996, Paul Presler in
1990, Jennifer Howard in 1988, Laura Neack in 1980 and Karen Campbell in 1979.
UK also became one of five institutions selected to award six undergraduate research scholarships
over the next three years from the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Scholars Program to students who
excel in the chemical and biological sciences. The first two scholarships, each totaling $17,600, will sup-
port the research of UK juniors Robin Petroze of Fort Mitchell and Garrett Matthew Sparks of
Ashland. UK was invited to compete for the scholarships against 61 other major research universities.
. ln addition to UK, other schools selected to award the undergraduate research scholarships this year
include Boston. Duke and Washington universities, and the University of California at Los Angeles.
Thats company we don`t mind keeping. That we were chosen to award these scholarships proves
what l`ve said all along —— University of Kentucky students can compete with students anywhere.
