The goal of the initiative is to introduce a series of efforts to promote Kentucky State University as Frankfort's University and to encourage and promote ongoing collaboration with the University and public schools which would include middle and high schools. City of Frankfort Mayor William May issued a proclamation designating Kentucky State University as Frankfort's University.
The University has reinstated its Circle K Club (the university version of the Kiwanis Club). The New Student Orientation Program has been totally redesigned. Instead of having one session, it was broken into three sessions for new and transfer students. Orientation is now mandatory of all new students.
