INSIGHTS - Straight from the Students
College of Arts & Sciences Dean Mark Lawrence Kornbluh recently sat down with four students representing a diverse range of majors in the College to discuss their experiences at UK. It became clear each student placed immense value in the outside-the-classroom connections that UK and A&S have helped them build in order to form a well-rounded education.
