the needs of a commonwealth
The University of Kentucky provides many services to the state. It furnishes an opportunity for higher education for more than 10,000 students yearly and supplies the state with teachers, business leaders, lawyers, engineers, and other professional persons.
It cannot accomplish all this in the classroom but must extend research into areas for economic and social improvements. The University Medical Center provides the most recent techniques for medical personnel and institutions, and the Agriculture Experiment Station aids agricultural production in Kentucky in reaching the one billion dollar industry as outlined by Governor Breathitt.
Conferences, conventions and meetings are held throughout the year on the campus. These gatherings connect the University with the people of the state and the Kentuckians with their University. UK provides not only educational facilities for its followers but also a common bond to the state. The University is concerned with life surrounding it and an enthusiasm for service to the people whom it represents.
Coldstream Farm enables Kentucky agriculture to exhibit the latest in experimental development.
