2002-2003

* January 2003
I am pleased to provide you with this profile of facts and statistics about the people and programs at the University of
Kentucky. The 2002-2003 Fact Booklet contains a summary of current facts about enrollment, retention, degrees
conferred, tuition and fees, faculty salaries, and other items of interest to policy makers and citizens alike. Also
included is a summary of the University of Kentucky’s 2002-2003 Operating Budget.
The University of Kentucky achieved several academic milestones during the past year. For the first time, U.S. News &
World Report ranked the university among the top 50 public universities in the nation. We succeeded in attracting the
largest class of first-year students in our history. Many of these students arrived at the university with very strong
academic credentials, which reflects, in part, the benefits of our new Governor’s Scholars Scholarship Program and
Legacy Tuition Program. We also witnessed a record number of students enrolling in graduate programs. Stepped-up
efforts to improve graduation rates are also showing signs of success. Last year, the percentage of students graduating
within six years was the highest in our institution’s history.
In the area of research, the University of Kentucky moved up two slots in the annual rankings published by the National
Science Foundation. The university is currently ranked 47th among all research universities and colleges in research
expenditures. The university reported over $200 million in research expenditures for the fiscal year 2000, an increase of
16 percent over the previous year. In recent years, the university has surpassed its previous records in the number of
new grants and contracts acquired by faculty.
Unfortunately, faculty salaries continue to lag well behind our benchmark institutions. In 2001-2002, the average
salary paid to faculty was 10 percent below the median of our benchmarks. Our vision of a top-20 public research
university hinges upon our ability to attract and maintain high quality faculty members. Increasing faculty salaries will
be difficult to accomplish given Kentucky’s poor economic picture. We must, however, find a way to reward our
faculty for their expertise and hard work.
Several much-needed buildings were constructed during the past year, and work continues on a number of other capital

* projects. The Health Sciences and the Ralph G. Anderson Mechanical Engineering buildings were recently completed.
Among the projects under construction are the Agricultural Plant Sciences facility, the Biomedical/Biological Sciences
Research Building, the UK Center for Rural Health, and the Linda and Jack Gill Heart Institute. All of us are anticipating the reconstruction and improvements planned for the Administration Building following the disastrous fire in the
spring of 2001.
During the past year, the University of Kentucky has been engaged in systematic planning efforts in its quest to become
one of the nation’s top-20 public research institutions. The Futures Task Force has assessed the current status of our
scholarly and educational strengths and recommended areas where the university should invest new or reallocated
resources. A university-wide task force has recommended integrating the Medical Center into the Provost Model, an
organizational change that will help us be more competitive in the health care marketplace and allocate fiscal resources
in a more effective manner.
Our legislators, educators, and citizens should know whether or not their investments in the University of Kentucky are
paying off. The Top 20 Task Force has recommended criteria and measures that the university will use to assess progress
toward our goal of becoming one of the country’s premier public research institutions. Of special note, the task force
has proposed measures that will monitor our success in solving many of Kentucky’s “Uglies,” including poverty,
illiteracy, and a myriad of health-related ailments that afflict our citizens. The work of the Top 20 Task Force provides
the framework for the university’s next strategic plan—The Dream and The Challenge. The University of Kentucky is
dedicated to improving the lives of all Kentuckians. We support the Commonwealth’s strategic agenda for an educated
citizenry, a thriving economy, a safe environment, a healthy population, and a culturally enriched society. Ultimately,
we shall judge our success by the degree to which we make this vision a reality for all the citizens of our state.
Sincerely,

Lee T. Todd, Jr.
President
