KSU Honors Collegium presents at Kentucky Honors Roundtable Conference

Posted on October 30, 2022

The Whitney M. Young Honors Collegium reinstated its membership in the Kentucky Honors Roundtable (KHR) with 10 students presenting at the 2022 roundtable conference.  Miana Wallace, Ciara Robinson, Ayanna Thornton, ZaKylah Bryant, Emma McQuade, Kiyanna Fields, Michal McLeod, III, Andreyia Ross, Kayla Bush and Alena Claycomb represented Kentucky State University presenting research papers, posters and creative expressions. The fall conference, hosted by the University of Kentucky’s Lewis Honors College, was held Oct. 28 and 29.  

“This was a great experience for the honors students,” noted Interim Dean Dr. TaKeia N. Anthony.  “It was the first conference for some students, while several others were presenting new research for the first time in a non-STEM centered research environment.  All the students recognized the significance of their work, not only to Kentucky State, but to the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  I am proud of all of the presenters.” 

According to its website, the Kentucky Honors Roundtable is an association of honors programs and colleges from across the Commonwealth. KHR hosts conferences that provide honors scholars with opportunities to present scholarly and creative work and build community and professional networks. KHR also serves as a venue for Kentucky's honors directors, deans, administrators and faculty to share ideas about best practices.
