A proposal for developing an equine complex at EKU, co-led by Sociologist Stephanie McSpirit and faculty from across the University, has been selected as one of 14 semi-finalists in President Benson’s Campus Challenge.  The proposed “Horses, Humans and Health Equine Complex” would be a multi-purpose facility serving students in a variety of programs, including EKU’s unique Animal Studies program, and would support the cultural heritage and economic development of our region and state.
