K TeamsThere’s no need to worry about who you will attend K Week events with. All freshmen are assigned to a K Team, a small group of 15-20 students led by a member of the K Crew. If you came to UK without knowing anyone, your K Team will be a group that you can go to events with. Even if you came to UK with a lot of friends from high school, going to events with your K Team is the perfect opportunity to branch out and meet new people. You will meet at least five times with your K Team:

- Friday, August 19 for K Week Kick-off at 7 p.m.- Saturday, August 20 before Big Blue U at 6:30 p.m. - Sunday, August 21 for lunch at 12 p.m.- Monday, August 22 for dinner and the

Common Reading Experience book discussion at 5 p.m.- Tuesday, August 23 for a campus tour to help you find your classes at 4:30 p.m.

Freshmen living on campus should have received their K Team assignment by email over the summer. Students who are uncertain about their K Team assignment can check with K Week staff in the residence hall lobbies during move-in hours on Friday. Freshmen living off campus should check in on Johnson Center Fields from 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. on Friday, August 19 before the K Week Kick-off to receive a K Team assignment. If you are a transfer student and are interested in being assigned to a Transfer K Team, you should also check in on Johnson Center Fields at this time.When you arrive on Johnson Center Fields on Friday and Saturday evenings, look for your K Team number on a sign. Your K Crew leader will be there waiting to meet you and the rest of your K Team.

Need Help? Look for the K Crew!Lost? Disoriented? Need a friend? Need directions? Look for a member of the K Crew! These students are happy to assist you, and they’ve got the answers you need. Just bring your questions!

Tips for Making the Most of K WeekK Week is full of opportunities to get out, get involved, get informed, and explore what awaits you here at UK. Completing the tasks in the checklist below will ensure that you get your college experience off to a great start!

❑ When you’re not attending K Week events, spend time getting settled in your room. Make it your home away from home. Don’t miss our Late-night Target Run on Sunday night for those things you forgot!

❑ Review the K Week schedule each night to see what is going on the following day. Look for daily emails with schedule highlights, too. You won’t want to miss all of the cool things coming up!

❑ Don’t hesitate to ask for help. Look for faculty, staff, and members of the K Crew throughout K Week. We all remember what it is like to be new to UK.

❑ Get to know your roommate, your resident advisor (RA), your neighbors, your K Team, and the K Crew. Begin building relationships with all the people you are going to be living with for the next nine months.

❑ Go to all your K Team meetings and as many other events as possible with your K Team. Doing so will get you connected with new friends – and potential study partners, dinner dates, and BFFs.

❑ Follow The Blueprint and read the K Book. Both of these publications are meant to help you in your transition to UK. The Blueprint offers step-by-step details on how to be successful in your first year at UK. The K Book is full of all the information that upperclass students think new students need to know and touches on everything from academic tips to things to do in Lexington and central Kentucky. Take advantage of all the information in both of these publications.

❑ Have fun!

We encourage you to stop by the informal Parents and Families Reception on Friday night, August 19 to get to know UK administrators and fellow UK families and hear brief remarks from UK President Eli Capilouto.

Parent and Family Tips forMaking the Most of K Week- Review the schedule of events with your student. Make note of the events your student is expected to participate in, and decide what other events you want to attend.- Encourage your student to take advantage of any of the optional events that interest him/her.- Don’t worry if your student doesn’t have everything needed for his/her room. Remind your student to check out our Late-night Target run on Sunday night. Buses will take students to Target in Hamburg where they can stock up on snacks, school supplies, and more.

Parent and Family Tips forthe First Few Weeks of School- Have you joined the UK Parent & Family Association? If not, it is not too late! You can join at the Parents and Families Reception on Friday or you can visit www.uky.edu/joinukpfa for a membership application and a complete list of member benefits. Joining the UK Parent & Family Association is a great way to support your UK student and stay up-to-date on the latest campus activities!- Is your student experiencing homesickness? Encourage him/her to reach out to a K Team leader, RA, friend, or psychologist at UK’s Counseling Center. Homesickness is a common experience. Suggest things he/she can do to make UK feel smaller: joining a student organization, talking to classmates, and seeking additional opportunities to meet people.- Encourage your student to spend as much time on campus as possible to help get to know UK better, meet new people, and feel more comfortable. As much as you may want to see your student, suggest that he/she not come home for a few weekends. Tell him/her to check the campus calendar to find out about all the events taking place. As much as you may be missing your student, don’t make him/her feel guilty about being here at UK. Encourage your Wildcat to take advantage of this opportunity to learn and grow.

An evergreen tree was placed on the highest point of the structure for good luck. As the new Student Center reaches its highest point, stop by to sign the beam along with workers, the project Steering Committee, students, faculty, and UK administrators.
