University of Louisville Earns High Recognition for Community Involvement

Well played, University of Louisville. No, I’m not talking about hiring Rick Pitino (“Well done” doesn’t even scratch the surface…). I’m referring to the fact that the University of Louisville received The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Learning’s highest rating for Community Involvement.

According to Carnegie, this recognition means that U of L has “addressed community-identified needs, deepened students’ civic and academic learning and enhanced the well-being of the community.”

In addition, they have “demonstrated teaching, learning, and other scholarly activities, engaging faculty, students, and the community in mutually beneficial and respectful collaboration.”

U of L is one of 119 schools nationwide and three schools in Kentucky to earn the Carnegie designation in two areas:

1. Curricular engagement
2. Outreach partnerships

Berea College and Eastern Kentucky University were the other two Kentucky schools to be honored.
