WKU Highlights Upcoming Campus Events

This week on Topper Tuesday, presented by Franklin Bank & Trust, John-Mark Francis from Western Kentucky University's (WKU) enrollment management and marketing team appeared with News 40's Samantha Money to discuss several anticipated WKU events planned for October. The segment detailed key opportunities for student engagement and community participation as excitement builds across campus.

Preview Day Offers Prospective Students a Campus Experience

During the interview, Francis shared information about Preview Day, an event designed to give prospective students and their families a comprehensive look at WKU's campus, programs, and resources. Preview Day is a longstanding tradition that underscores the university’s commitment to providing a welcoming environment for potential Hilltoppers. Attendees typically have the chance to tour campus facilities, meet current students and faculty, and learn more about the enrollment process and available academic programs.

Tyler Hubbard Pregame Concert Energizes WKU Community

One of the highlights Francis mentioned was the upcoming pregame concert featuring country artist Tyler Hubbard. Hubbard is scheduled to perform on WKU’s South Lawn at 4:30 p.m. preceding the WKU football team’s midweek matchup against Delaware. The pregame concert is expected to draw students, alumni, and community members eager for an energetic lead-up to the evening's athletic event.
