Tracing The Legacy Of African-American Pathfinders

On this edition of UK Perspectives we discuss “They Came Before: The Legacy of African-American Pioneers at Trailblazers at the University of Kentucky”.

This booklet was recently published by the UK Alumni Association, and tells the stories of over 100 pioneers at the university. Although not available in print, the booklet can be read online at http://www.ukalumni.net/s/1052/semi-blank-noimg.aspx?sid=1052&gid=1&pgid=6804. We speak about the project with Elaine Wilson, chair of the Pioneer Project Committee & First African-American President of the UK Alumni Association and Tina Bryson, the project’s Program Coordinator.

The UK Alumni Association has a request form on the Pioneer/Trailblazer project webpage for those interested in receiving information about a print copy. An online version along with the print copy request form is available at www.ukalumni.net/ukpioneers.
