Reunion Classes

Is this your reunion year? UKCOP goes the extra mile to help celebrate anniversaries for classes reaching 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, or 50 years since graduation. Check below for activities happening for your class.

Don’t see your class year listed? We just haven't heard from your class members yet! We’d still love to have you at the all-COP homecoming tailgate tent as the gathering place for your group.

If you’re interested in organizing something unique for your class, contact our Alumni Engagement Director, Ellie Goodman, at ellie.goodman@uky.edu. Need some inspiration? Consider a brunch, a day at Keeneland, a distillery tour, or a special dinner/happy hour. Let us help you create memorable experiences for your class!

Class of 2014

Happy 10 Years! Here's what's happening with your class:

Friday, October 11 

  • Keeneland
    We are currently looking into a designated tailgate area for our class. Details are dependent on overall interest. If we have enough people for an official tailgate - that will be great! - but there may be a small fee associated.

    UKCOP is working to provide a link to General Admission Keeneland Tickets. If you would like to go ahead and purchase tickets, they are currently available on Keeneland's website.
  • Dinner
    TBD - Depending on interest from the class. Once we have an idea on how many will attend, we will send information on location and time.

    As we work through planning, please use this link to let us know what you are interested in attending!

Saturday, October 12

  • 3 hours before kickoff – UKCOP Homecoming Tailgate Bash (Corner of Nicholasville Rd and Farm Rd)

    Join the entire pharm fam under the big tent for our annual homecoming tailgate bash! Food, non-alcoholic drinks, music, and live streaming of the UK vs. Vanderbilt game will be provided. RSVP so we can order enough food!

Pharm To Table: Dean Guy's Tour of Kentucky and Beyond

It's been a while since we've been out on the road. So, we're bringing back our signature Kentucky tour with a twist. 

Dean Guy and the crew will be in a city near you hosting conversations about the future of pharmacy—and we need your voice at the table. This is a chance for us to get to know each other better and discuss what is and isn't working as we lead change in our communities and beyond.

Over the next five years, we intend to visit every Kentucky county (yes, all of them), plus some neighboring states, to facilitate discussions that will be documented anonymously. We'll share our findings with alumni and colleagues as we strive to lead collaborative innovation that improves health.

Want a spot at the table? We saved a seat for you.
