LEXINGTON, Ky. (March 23, 2015) — As University of Kentucky students complete their final projects, many of them must go beyond simply writing papers — making presentations in front of the class. 

Utilizing video in coursework is becoming more and more common for students across a wide variety of majors and minors.  Fortunately, resources are available to students regardless of their level of experience.  Media Depot, located in The Hub @ WT’s inside the William T. Young Library, is one of those resources.

Watch the “Where I ‘see blue.’” video feature above to discover why UK senior Kevin Angel, a media arts and studies major from Walton, Kentucky, loves working in the Media Depot and how his experience will help him long after he graduates.

The "Where I 'see blue." video feature is part of a special series produced by UKNow focusing on locations across campus that are meaningful for UK students, administrators, faculty, staff and alumni.   The idea is to show how the physical spaces on campus help foster discovery, community, research, knowledge and success for the UK family.  As the university celebrates its 150th anniversary, we want to show readers what our campus is like today by showcasing locations that have stood for decades along with some of our newest spots.  

  

Since the “Where I ‘see blue.’” video series is now a monthly feature on UKNow, we invite you to submit future ideas.  If there’s an obscure spot on campus you don’t think many people know about or an area that’s on everyone’s radar but you have a special connection to it, email us.  Who knows?  We might just choose your suggestion for our next feature!
