The theme for the Awards Program is "Upholding the Torch of Excellence." UK’s Academic Colleges and Athletic Department will select an African American alumni, faculty, or staff member whose faith, hard work, and determination has positively impacted the lives of people on the UK campus, the city, state or nation.
These individuals will receive the coveted Lyman T. Johnson "Torch of Excellence Award." They will also choose an African American undergraduate within their respective colleges/department whose academic achievement and ability to positively impact the lives of others would warrant him/her to receive the Lyman T. Johnson "Torch Bearer Award."
Student Organizations and Greek Tent Reunions will be recognized during the Awards Program. Other activities include performances by Black Voices, Strolling Competition, Poetry, Greek Connection and Free Food. For additional information, contact Buzz Burnam at buzz@uky.edu.
