By Brenna Angel

Lexington, KY –
It's the end of an era for the University of Kentucky. President Lee Todd, Jr. retires this week after ten years on the job. After taking a year off with his wife Patsy, Todd plans to stay busy keeping an office on campus and rejoining the electrical engineering faculty. Todd says he's proud of the strides UK has made in student enrollment and healthcare. The outgoing president plans to keep in touch with state lawmakers and other leaders about funding for the land grant institution.
