WKU will be offering 2 online courses during WKU’s second bi-term (October 12 – December 8). The courses offered are PSY 100 Introduction to Psychology and UC 100 College & Career Explorations.

In order to gain valuable feedback from Kentucky students and to engage student leaders in learning by doing, the Kentucky Education Commissioner created the Commissioner’s Student Council. This group will meet with the commissioner and Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) staff, both in person and virtually, to discuss how decisions made at the state level are affecting students throughout Kentucky and provide feedback – from a student perspective – on critical issues impacting Kentucky students and schools.

The Commissioner’s Student Council is a school year-long program for Kentucky public school students in grades 10-12, including students from the Kentucky School for the Blind and Kentucky School for the Deaf. The council will play a vital role in providing input regarding issues that face education in Kentucky and work with KDE staff to develop ideas that will work to improve and transform education.

The council seeks students with innovative ideas and thoughtful insight into how we can further improve our schools and student achievement. As such, we encourage students to apply who represent the diverse academic, geographic, demographic and school-size variables particular to our state.

Students interested in applying to participate in the 2018 Governor's Scholars Program will need to download a copy of the 2018 Student Application.  Information regarding the application and selection process is listed HERE
