What a perfect day! 🐶🍩

Thank you to Office of Health Equity & Engagement, the Office of the EVPHA and the Animal Care Society for the opportunity to be part of today’s Doggos & Donuts event. Beautiful weather, great company, and the sweetest pups made it such a joy! Whether you needed a study break, a morale boost, or just some puppy love, it was wonderful seeing students and employees come together to enjoy sweet treats, wagging tails, music, and wellness resources.

A Historic Day in More Ways Than One!
Yesterday, Tom Owen’s legendary Belknap Campus Historical Walking Tour drew an amazing 45 attendees and news coverage from WHAS! It wasn’t just the stories that made it special. It was also Tom’s 86th birthday! 🥳🎂

From the hidden cemetery beneath Ekstrom Library to the eight historic buildings that once housed the Industrial School of Reform, Tom captivated the crowd with his deep knowledge and signature storytelling. His passion for Louisville’s history continues to inspire generations.
