What is the organization of state colleges and universities in Kentucky?
The University of Louisville is one of eight state-assisted public universities in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The eight universities are independent entities, so each should be contacted regarding pertinent material in their holdings. The Kentucky system is not structured like the systems in states such as Texas, California, and Tennessee, which have systems of one state university with multiple campuses.
