* January 2009
In compliance with KRS 164.250, I am pleased to provide you with the 2008-2009 Fact Booklet, a collection of current
facts and statistics about the people and programs at the University of Kentucky. Many items in this booklet will be of
interest to our stakeholders and the general public, including statistics on enrollments, retention, research expenditures, and faculty salaries. A summary of the 2008-2009 Operating and Capital Budget also is presented.
We are pleased to report that the University of Kentucky enrolled a record number of African American freshmen in
Fall 2008. Nearly 350 Black first-year students chose to attend our institution, a net gain of almost 100 students over
the previous year. UK also exceeded last year’s record-setting number of degrees conferred. Over 5,800 students
earned degrees in 2007-08, a 2.9 percent increase since last year. UK is having success as a full partner in Project
Graduate, a statewide program designed to make completing a degree as convenient as possible for former students.
We are especially proud that our retention rate has jumped from the lowest rate in over a decade to what promises to
be the highest rate in our history. The preliminary retention rate for the Fall 2007 cohort is 81 percent. This year’s leap
in the percentage of returning first-year students can be attributed to a variety of interventions in the Provost’s War
on Attrition, from increased emphasis on advising to our new “academic alert system” aimed at providing academically at-risk students with the support they need to succeed.

* In the near future, several new facilities will come on-line to create the space needed for our teaching, research, and
service programs. These buildings include a biological pharmaceutical complex building and a new patient care facility.
We also are in the process of renovating or expanding several older facilities, including: the Livestock Disease Diagnostic Lab, the Cancer Center Radiologic Facility, the Center for Applied Energy Research, and the Schmidt Vocal Arts
Center. Other facilities in the planning and design phase include the Gatton College Building Complex, the Law School
Building, and a second Digital Village Building.
UK’s proud accomplishments during the past year have occurred against a backdrop of increasingly dismal economic
conditions for our state and nation. Despite the gloomy financial picture, our institution remains committed to becoming a Top 20 university. We fully understand, however, that achieving national prominence is only a means to an
end. The citizens of Kentucky expect us to make significant improvements in people’s day-to-day lives. Through the
excellence of our teaching, research, and service, we hope to solve many of the social, economic, and health-related
problems facing our Commonwealth.
Sincerely,

Lee T. Todd, Jr.
President

Note 1: Some numbers do not total properly due to rounding.
Note 2: When the 2007-08 Fact Book was printed, the annual inventory for fiscal year 6/30/07 (FY 07) had not been completed. Equipment classified as “unassigned” was therefore excluded from the totals for both FY 06 and FY 07 to allow for an appropriate comparison (p. 34). Because the inventory was completed in January 2008, the totals above
include “unassigned” equipment.

*Note1: The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) is in the process of revising the way library materials are counted so totals for 2007-08 are not available.
**Note2: The 2004-2005 Periodicals number was revised following the prior publication of this information.
***Note3: ARL changed the way that periodicals are counted.
