Dean Mark Kornbluh Blog: In Remembrance of Joan Callahan

Dear Friends,

While at UK, Joan Callahan touched the lives of generations of our students and impacted this College and University profoundly for the better.  It was my great honor to induct her in the A&S Hall of Fame in 2010.

Joan will be greatly missed by our community.
