    mcconnell center — a new beginning for a continuing mission Foreword By James Ramsey President, University of Louisville As the President of the University of Louisville, I am proud to contribute this Foreword. The McConnell Center has had a tremendously successful first fifteen years, and with the Center’s move into its new headquarters in Ekstrom Library, it really is an appropriate time for a word on moving forward. Quite simply, the McConnell Center is one of the most exciting programs on campus. It enriches all of our lives through the students it helps us recruit and its programs and publications that enlighten and entertain. With its new teaching and learning spaces, the Center is already helping the University move forward with richer partnerships in the community and adding in its own way to our growing national prestige. It is fitting that the University have a center of excellence on campus named after one of our most prestigious alumni. Mitch McConnell has never forgotten his days as a student leader and never shrinks from helping his alma mater. His service to our community is a model of how men and women at the peak of their professional lives can still find time to touch other lives and leave their worlds a little better than they found it. The McConnell Center has given more than $1.7 million in scholarships over the last fifteen years and impacted nearly every corner of our Commonwealth. McConnell Scholars have come from 66 counties across Kentucky and represent a diverse and talented group of young leaders.

  • THE MCCONNELL CENTER Where Teaching History & Making History Come Together
    THE MCCONNELL CENTER Where Teaching History & Making History Come Together 1 FROM THE DESK OF PRESIDENT RAMSEY It is the goal of every institution of higher learning to prepare its students to take their place on the local, state and national stages. For generations, students have found their political voices and a lifelong calling on college campuses and learned how public policy and advocacy shape our country. The University of Louisville has been proud to be the home of the McConnell Center for more than 20 years, exposing students to a variety of viewpoints from some of the most important and influential leaders of their time. In addition to learning from the best and the brightest, the center has provided more than 200 students with $3 million dollars in scholarship money over the last two decades. In the same way UofL strives to change and better the world around us, the McConnell Center has improved the university, while affecting the larger community in significant and lasting ways. The center’s high profile reputation and prestigious guest speakers continually shines a bright light on our city, while providing our future leaders access to insight and advice from national and international leaders. The center also has established a permanent lecture series, free and open to the public, on a variety of important public policy topics. As the center continues to expand its role on campus and in our community, I ask that you join me in lending our support to Dr. Gary Gregg and his team, now and in the years ahead.

  • The Lincoln Issue Lincoln to the Fore, and a Fond Farewell
    $5.00 KentuckyKentucky Humanities Council Inc. humanities The Lincoln Issue Lincoln to the Fore, and a Fond Farewell Dear Friends, Welcome to a special issue honoring Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday on February 12, 2009. We hope you’ll enjoy this collection of insightful articles that look at the great president and his legacy from a variety of perspectives. John E. Kleber writes of Lincoln with a constant view to his lifelong ties to Kentucky. Kleber’s article—“Shall Any Claim Come Before the Mother?”—is a superb overview of Lincoln’s life and career. In “A Power Trio,” James C. Klot- ter focuses on Lincoln’s relationship with two Lexingtonians who played major roles in his life, Henry Clay and Mary Todd. Jonathan Jeffrey recounts the fascinating stories of the many Lincoln memorials that have arisen in Kentucky over the past hundred years—and are still rising—in “Now He Belongs to the Ages.” Slavery was the issue that dominated American politics during the Lincoln era. From Karolyn Smardz Frost we get “Flight to Freedom,” the amazing story of Thornton and Lucie Blackburn, whose bold flight from slavery in Kentucky ended in Canada.There, as Kentucky slave catchers tried to reach across the border to drag them back, the Blackburns made legal history.Their case turned Canada into the runaway slave’s promised land. And there’s more to discover, including a useful chronology of Lincoln’s life, the origins of Kentucky’s many Lincoln place names, and an essay on the conflicted legacy of Lincoln’s wartime rival, Jefferson Davis.
