The 42nd annual Kentucky Book Festival will return to Joseph-Beth Booksellers in Lexington from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday, Oct. 21. More than 150 authors including many University of Kentucky faculty, staff and alumni will be in attendance, meeting readers and signing books.
New TEK courses will be offered utilizing the UKC prefix during the Spring 2024 semester and will satisfy UK Core requirements. Courses focus on topics such as climate change, misinformation, creative spaces and well-being. All undergraduate students are encouraged to enroll in the new courses.
New courses created as part of the TEK Faculty Fellows program will engage faculty in team-teaching across disciplinary boundaries with a focus on a critical issue or problem alongside workforce experts and community partners. Revised courses will emphasize the skills that transdisciplinary work requires, including collaboration and communication among stakeholders with different perspectives and lived experiences.
