WUKY's 'UK Perspectives' Explores Three Minute Thesis Competition

LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 23, 2016) — WUKY's "UK Perspectives" focuses on the people and programs of the University of Kentucky and is hosted by WUKY General Manager Tom Godell. Today's show is about an interesting project of the UK Graduate Student Congress — the Three Minute Thesis — a competition among students to condense their thesis into a three-minute presentation for a lay audience. Guests are Kaylynne Glover, a doctoral student in biology, and Sydney Crawley, an entomologist who won last year's Three Minute Thesis competition.
