Kentucky college seniors, the Herald-Leader wants to hear from you.

We’re looking to interview a group of college students from the Class of 2026 who are nearing graduation in Central Kentucky. We plan to ask about a variety of topics, all centered around how prepared you feel for life after graduation.

Our goal is to give insight into what it’s like to be finishing college at this moment in time in Kentucky and America, in the midst of the current political climate, job market and changes to higher education. We hope to interview students from a variety of colleges across the region.
