Under his leadership, Kentucky’s flag- ship and land grant research university has reimagined what’s possible as the state’s most important institution for growth in education, health care, and economic and social advances. In less than a decade, UK has grown from $2.7 billion to $4.2 billion in total operations, fueled by sustained and significant momentum in its missions of teaching, research, service, and health care. One example of that growth — and re- imagination of what is possible for a public university — has been a $2.4 billion trans- formation of the campus, aimed squarely at expanding UK’s education, research, ser- vice, and health care missions. Specifically, through partnerships with the private sector, increased philanthropy, and effective finan- cial management, UK is self-financing the vast majority of this aggressive development. Over the last eight years, the University has opened: n The $265 million Healthy Kentucky Research Building; n The $201 million Bill Gatton Student Center; n The $112 Jacobs Science Building (fi- nanced, in large part, through a $65 million partnership with UK Athletics); n The $65 million renovated and ex- panded Gatton College of Business and Economics building; n 20 new dining facilities; n 14 new residence halls, funded entire- ly with private equity; n A new $15 million home for the School of Art and Visual Studies; n A $126 million revitalized Kroger Field (funded solely by Athletics revenue); n Nearly $550 million since 2011 in the continued construction and fit-out of the new Chandler Hospital; n And a $56 million renovation and expan- sion of the College of Law, opening this fall. This re-imagination and innovation of the campus has resulted in: n Enrolling more than 30,500 students, thanks to dramatic growth in first-year en- rollment and record retention rates; n Conferring more 7,000 undergradu- ate, graduate, and professional degrees in the last academic year, reflective of a record graduation rate; n Treating more than 40,000 patients in UK HealthCare; n Earning more than $380 million in re- search awards, including a historic $87 mil- lion grant to fight opioid abuse and death; n Being nationally recognized for efforts to be a diverse and welcoming community; n Remaining in a strong financial posi- tion, reflected by a strong and stable bond rating; and n Negotiating a transformative partner- ship with the city of Lexington that will strengthen economic development, im- prove career prospects for our graduates, and provide better pedestrian safety. The progress on the campus is helping ensure an outstanding workforce for Ken- tucky, with dramatic increases in the num- ber of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) degrees. More than 77 percent of all UK graduates stay in Kentucky, with average earnings of more than 25 percent above the national average. UK is Kentucky’s indispensable econom- ic partner, with dozens of partnerships to provide research expertise to private busi- ness owners and internship opportunities for UK students; spending $5.5 billion with Kentucky companies since 2011; owning more than 600 patent assets; and employing more than 13,500 people, who pay more than $100 million in state and local taxes. A native of Montgomery, Alabama, Dr. Capilouto previously served as Provost of the University of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB) and Dean of the UAB School of Pub- lic Health — a period of remarkable growth and transformation at one of the leading academic and health sciences institutions in the South. Dr. Capilouto holds several undergraduate and graduate degrees from schools within the University of Alabama system, a Doctor of Medicine in Dentist- ry (D.M.D.) from UAB, and a Doctorate in Health Policy and Management from Har- vard University. He and his wife, Dr. Mary Lynne Capilouto (D.M.D.) a former Dean of the UAB School of Dentistry, have one daughter.

Since his arrival in Lexington, Barnhart has steadily invested in the growth of all 22 UK teams while maintaining a singular commitment to the holistic development of Wildcat student-athletes. Matching resources to expectations has been a hallmark of his tenure, with the proof coming in the form of $300 million in facility improvements since 2007 and his bold pursuit of a goal titled Elite 1-3-5. At the heart of everything are the core values Barnhart has instilled in the depart- ment he leads: character, integrity, knowl- edge, stewardship and competitiveness. The aim of Elite 1-3-5 is for each UK team to be No. 1 by winning a conference or national championship, sustain a depart- ment-wide 3.0 grade-point average and a departmental rank in the top five of the Lear- field IMG Directors’ Cup standings by 2022. It’s an ambitious undertaking, but UK stu- dents, coaches and staff have proven them- selves capable of unmatched achievement. Four UK teams have won championships towards Elite 1-3-5, most recently with vol- leyball winning a third consecutive South- eastern Conference championship, men’s basketball winning the 2020 SEC champi- onship and rifle winning the 2020 regular season and tournament titles. UK was well positioned to pursue a top- five Directors’ Cup finish in 2019-20 before the COVID-19 pandemic cut short the com- petitive seasons in early March. Prior to that, UK had the six best Directors’ Cup finishes in school history coming in the previous sev- en seasons, highlighted by a school-record 10th-place finish in 2016-17. UK Athletics continues to excel in the ac- ademic component of Elite 1-3-5, as Wild- cat student-athletes on scholarship have combined for a GPA of better than 3.0 in 16 consecutive semesters. In spring 2020, UK achieved a cumulative GPA of 3.534, the best in school history. UK athletes have set records for graduation rates and maintained a perfect mark in the 16-year history of the NCAA Academic Progress Rate, making UK one of just two SEC schools to never incur an APR penalty. Elite 1-3-5 is the successor to Barnhart’s 15 by 15 by 15 Plan, set forth in 2008. The 15 by 15 by 15 Plan called on UK Athlet- ics to rank among the nation’s top 15 athletics programs and win 15 conference or national championships by 2015. At the same time, Barnhart set goals of a 3.0 composite GPA for Wildcat students and an even greater commitment to com- munity service. The academic goal was first achieved in the spring semes- ter of 2010, with grades hitting a peak in spring 2014 with a then-school-record 3.218 composite GPA. Community service has risen to more than 4,000 hours annually and in- cludes outreach to the Lexing- ton area, the Commonwealth of Kentucky and as far away as Ethiopia, the Dominican Republic and Panama. The Directors’ Cup objective was reached a year early when UK checked in at a then- school record No. 11 in the 2013-14 nation- al all-sports standings. The final goal was reached when UK men’s basketball claimed the 2015 SEC Tour- nament title, the 15th championship won by Wildcat athletes since 2008. In addition to being one of four NCAA Division I Athletics Directors of the Year in 2015, Barnhart also was one of four finalists for Athletics Director of the Year as chosen by the SportsBusiness Journal and he received the Sports Business Award from the Bluegrass Sports Commis- sion that year. Four years after his first nomination by the SportsBusiness Journal, Barnhart was named 2019 Athletic Director of the Year, but he has always been more interested in the achieve- ments of UK student-athletes than his own. Barnhart is always seeking improve- ment. One recent example is UK’s newly launched Student-Athlete Experience Divi- sion. Through the division’s work, UK has renewed its commitment to prepare stu- dent-athletes to enter life after UK by equip- ping them with requisite professional skills and helping them identify and pursue intern- ship and work opportunities while continu- ing to provide the academic support that has made UK Athletics a trendsetter in college athletics for the last four decades. Investment in the success of UK stu- dent-athletes in all facets has been a theme of the Barnhart era, beginning with the pro- vision of funds for full coaching staffs and scholarship allotments for all 22 UK sports. Even with the department’s growth and the increasingly competitive nature of col- lege sports, UK Athletics has remained finan- cially self-sufficient under Barnhart’s man- agement, operating with a balanced budget and with the help of no state or University funds. Seeing pressing facility needs on cam- pus as well, Barnhart has made a $65 mil- lion commitment for athletics to fund nearly two-thirds of the new Don & Cathy Jacobs Science Building on campus. He also directs an annual $1.7-million contribution to the University’s scholarship program. Millions more dollars from the athletics budget stay on campus each year through athletic schol- arship payments, administrative support pay- ments, merchandise royalties and other ave- nues. Additionally, UK has also completely phased out the athletics fee previously paid by students as part of their tuition. A steadfast believer in the transforma- tional power of college athletics, Barnhart is influential on the national level. Already having served on numerous committees and boards for the NCAA and the National As- sociation of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), Barnhart completed his fourth year as a member of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee in 2020, which brings responsibility for selecting, seeding and bracketing teams, along with adminis- tration of the NCAA’s highest-profile event. He will serve as Chair of the committee for the 2021 event. With his extensive previous experience on the NCAA Division I Council, as chair of the NCAA Competition Oversight Commit- tee and as a member of the NCAA Division Mitch Barnhart n Athletics Director of the University of Kentucky 112 @UKFootballI Baseball Committee, in addition to several other leadership groups, Barnhart has prov- en himself well-suited for the task. On a league level, Barnhart – the lon- gest-tenured athletics director in the confer- ence – was named chair of the SEC Athlet- ics Directors in 2017, the latest instance of his active involvement in SEC projects. Of recent note is his work with the SEC Com- pliance Committee and the SEC Network Content Committee, which helped the high- ly successful launch of the largest new cable channel in television history. Barnhart’s legacy at UK includes help- ing develop administrators who have gone on to become athletics directors at nation- ally prominent universities, including Greg Byrne of Alabama, Mark Coyle at Minneso- ta, Rob Mullens at Oregon, Scott Stricklin at Florida, John Cohen at Mississippi State, Kevin Saal at Murray State and DeWayne Peevy at DePaul. Barnhart arrived at UK from Oregon State, where he served four successful years (1998-2002) as athletics director. Before OSU, he worked in athletics administra- tion posts at Tennessee (1986-98), Southern Methodist University (1983-86), Oregon (1983) and San Diego State (1982-83). Barnhart is a native of Kansas City, Kan- sas. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Ottawa University (Kansas) in 1981 and a master’s in sports administration from Ohio University. In addition to the extraordinary achieve- ments of his work world, reaching new heights is also a theme of his personal life. An avid mountain climber, Barnhart has scaled Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, along with two of the most challenging peaks in the United States, Mount Rainier in Washington and the Grand Tetons in Wyoming. He has also twice per- formed tandem parachute jumps with the Army Golden Knights. Impactful in commu- nity service, Barnhart has taken part in mis- sion trips and was on the national advisory board of K-Love Radio. Barnhart and his wife, Connie, also ac- tively serve and support the Christian Student Fellowship and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes on campus in an effort to minister to young people. The Barnharts have three chil- dren, Kirby Willoughby, Blaire Jansen and Scott; Kirby’s husband, McKenzie; grand- sons, Cooper and Reece; Blaire’s husband, Andrew; and Scott’s wife Cassie. @UKSportsNetwork 113 CC WORTHWORTH I N C SUPERSTORE restaurant equipment/supplies buy•sell•trade new & used 1403 versailles rd. lexington, ky 40504 859-269-5964 fax 859-269-5966 www.cworthsuperstore.com 270.781.8720 1006 Adams Street Bowling Green, KY 42101 www.southeasterndisplays.com We are the largest outdoor company in Southcentral Kentucky offering billboard coverage in 20 Kentucky cities.
