Namings and Symbols Task Force

On behalf of WKU’s Naming and Symbols Task Force, we would like to thank those who have provided feedback. We have received more than 250 submissions from faculty, staff, students, alumni, and community members.

Some respondents have asked for additional information, both on the history of the names and symbols used on our campus and on the role of this task force. To satisfy those requests, we have created a resource page and a set of FAQs on the Naming and Symbols Task Force’s website, www.wku.edu/naming-and-symbols

We are also extending the deadline for feedback to March 15 to allow more time for those who wish to share comments after reviewing these resources. Please use the feedback form located on the website. 

Task Force members continue to review this valuable feedback as our work progresses.
