BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – A new initiative to celebrate the achievements of young alumni of WKU launched Tuesday.

The Western Kentucky University Young Alumni Council announced the Under 40 at the Top program to highlight WKU graduates under 40 who make significant contributions to their professions, communities, and alma mater.

The program aims to engage young alumni by highlighting their accomplishments and best exemplify WKU’s tradition of “The Spirit Makes the Master.”

The criteria for selection includes exceptional career achievements and community involvement.

WKU Young Alumni Council’s Under 40 at the Top inaugural class includes Abby Blandford (’18, ’20) of Louisville, Ky., Telia Butler (’12) of Bowling Green, Ky., Alan Keck (’07) of Somerset, Ky., Elvis Meskovic (’16, ’18) of Bowling Green, Ky., and Justavian Tillman (’18) of St. Louis, Mo.

“We are thrilled to launch Under 40 at the Top and shine a spotlight on the remarkable accomplishments of our young alumni,” said Douglas Stratton, President-Elect of the WKU Young Alumni Council and chair of the Council’s recognition workgroup. “This initiative not only celebrates their individual success but also serves as inspiration for current students and recent graduates as they pursue their own career goals.”
