From the judges: The “Big Blue Nation is Stronger than Ever” video distinguished itself by showing genuine clips from alumni, students, faculty, and staff in a fun video. The video shows familiar faces from campus, and encourages members to reflect fondly on their time at UK and how their gift, no matter the size, makes a big impact at UK. The funny outtake of the Alumni Association resident, infusing a bit of lighthearted humor, was a great touch that made the speakers relatable.

Title of entry: Big Blue Nation is Stronger than Ever
About this entry: The University of Kentucky Alumni Association exists to celebrate Wildcat spirit and serve all alumni, friends and students of UK. We are proud to serve all alumni as Members of the association and keep Wildcats everywhere informed and connected. In recognition of their loyalty and commitment, the UK Alumni Association wanted to thank its Members for advancing the university and making Big Blue Nation stronger than ever. A nostalgic “Happy New Year” video was shared in early January 2020 to thank Members for their dedication and share excitement for the coming year. The video shows familiar faces from campus and encourages Members to reflect fondly on their time at UK. It also gave Members an understanding of what their gift to the University of Kentucky supports and how they are furthering the mission of the institution.
