Wildcat Coal Lodge to Have a Coal Tribute in Lobby

The University of Kentucky’s new $8 million Wildcat Coal Lodge will have a tribute exhibiti to the coal industry in its lobby, according to an agreement between the donors who gave the money and the university.

The 20,000 square feet lodge will be near Memorial Coliseum and will house 32 students.

Here is an excerpt about the agreement from the Lexington Herald-Leader:
