EKU faculty members often travel beyond the scope of their job descriptions for their students. But one EKU professor recently traveled an even greater distance for her students when she jumped out of an airplane at 10,000 feet.

Students in Dr. Diane Vance’s special topics course, “Weapons of Mass Destruction,” bought her a gift certificate to skydive to show their appreciation for her teaching. Vance, also the director of Forensic Science, performed the jump in early June. To see a video of her experience, visit chemistry.eku.edu/insidelook/forensic-science-professor-skydives-students.
