Society of 1906

The Society of 1906 is the recognition society for individuals who make Western Kentucky University a part of their estate plans by including a bequest to the University in their wills, by participating in any of the various lifetimeincome plans the University has available, by designating the University as beneficiary of a trust, by naming the University as beneficiary of retirement plan assets, or by making the University beneficiary of insurance policies of which ownership has been assigned to the University.

If WKU is a part of your estate plan, please let us know. If you have been thinking of including WKU in your estate plans or need further assistance, we would like to hear from you.
