Water, essential to health, to the economy and to the sustainability of the environment, can be impacted by any number of things, not the least is the climate. The University of Kentucky’s Water Week 2017, a week of films, panel discussions, invited speakers and service activities, will examine climate change impacts on water quality.
The University of Kentucky was proud to host the Linguistics Society of America’s (LSA) biennial Linguistic Institute, the world’s largest extended gathering of linguists.
