EKU’s aviation program, the only university-based program in Kentucky, returned to Madison County Airport in 2008. Students have the opportunity to use two new Diamond DA-20 trainers, the same aircraft used by the U.S. Air Force Academy for beginning fl ight instruction.

Eastern Kentucky University’s Army ROTC Pro- gram ranked among the nation’s best in the 2007 Leadership Development and Assessment Course (LDAC). Among 132 institutions in the Eastern Re- gion, EKU tied for fi rst in basic rifl e marksmanship, tied for second in peer evaluations, ranked 13th on the Army physical fi tness test and 23rd in land navigation. In overall leadership, EKU ranked 13th and earned an excellent rating. EKU scored above the national average in every category.

Eastern’s Fitness and Wellness Center opened in the fall of 2004 and features state- of-the-art equipment which is available free of cost for all EKU students. Included in the center is a 10,000-square foot weight area, a four-lane indoor track, two multi-purpose gyms, a climbing wall, locker and shower facilities and a lounge area.

Phase 1 of the University’s New Science Building, comprising 174,195 square feet at a cost of approximately $64 million, is expected to open for classes in the Fall 2011 semester. The fi rst phase will house the Departments of Chemistry and Physics & Astronomy as well as science education (for the Department of Cur- riculum and Instruction) classrooms and laboratories.
