Move-in is a huge transition in the lives of our first-time, returning students and their families. Students from every Kentucky county, all 50 states and many countries will be joining the Big Blue Nation this fall. Many of them are arriving on campus for the very first time and may know little about Lexington and the beautiful Bluegrass region we call home. We encourage alumni to volunteer during the Big Blue Move-In.
Join us and share your success stories and favorite UK memories with the Class of 2029. Community volunteers will direct the newest Wildcats and their families toward the best places to eat and the must-do local activities. Your knowledge of the area and affection for the university are assets during move-in and can help alleviate any anxieties our incoming students might be feeling.
In addition to having the chance to welcome new students, volunteers will also get a free t-shirt and meal card for their time!
