Our Board

Overview

Designed to provide leadership and direction for the Forum, the Women's Forum Board consists of a total of 20 individuals: 18 elected Board members, the past chair and the current chair. The Women’s Forum Board puts out a call for nominations every year to elect new board members . Any UK full-time regular employee, faculty or staff, may be nominated to the UK Women’s Forum Board. The elected nominees in a campus-wide election will then serve a two-year term on the Board.

The annual UK Women's Forum Board retreat was held June 19, 2012 at the Chrysalis House in Lexington. The executive committee planned and prepared a wonderful retreat where new friendships were forged and wonderful plans made for the upcoming year. To execute those plans, we have new board members, a new executive board, and new committee chairs!
