We are happy to have you stop by and check out the Lyman T. Johnson African American alumni group. The group is named after Lyman T. Johnson who played an integral role in integrating Kentucky higher education in 1949.

Today we are busy supporting, promoting and initiating activities, programs, strategies and services which address the unique needs of, and foster the inclusion of, African American alumni in all aspects of university life. We are working to increase the level of participation of African American alumni in the alumni affairs of the university, the UK Alumni Association and its affiliated groups. And, we are here to help young African American students succeed. We sure could use your time and your presence as we come together and make plans.

You can help out right now by taking this short survey and check out the News and Events tab.

If you didn’t attend UK, or live in other areas of the U.S.A., give us your thoughts or ideas on how we can engage you in our programming, services and interaction with the university and support students, e-mail them to me at ukalumni@uky.edu.

Bookmark this page. Tell your friends about us. We invite all alumni (anyone who has earned 12 academic credit hours or more from UK) and friends to join us in becoming more involved with UK.

We hope you will come back again and spend some more time with us.
