A connected, caring work community

Employee Affinity Groups (EAGs) are employee-led communities that provide opportunities to connect with colleagues, share experience and engage in personal and professional growth.

Each group brings together employees with common backgrounds or interests. All UK employees are welcome to participate in any group — whether to learn more, build relationships or contribute to conversations across the university.

For more information about the groups, please contact the HR EAG Liaison Azetta Beatty at Azetta.beatty@uky.edu.
