WEIRD

This year has set a few different milestones in UK history--such as this year's class having over 5,000 freshman, and overall enrollment being 30,000 strong; but the oddest new milestone reached is having 113 twins in their undergrad class. UK spokesman Jay Blanton says of this latest trend, "The numbers of twins, triplets and quadruplets on our campus reflects our continued growth and the fact that more families and students view UK as a first choice for their education." http://www.kentucky.com/2014/12/21/3605826_youre-not-seeing-double-there.html?rh=1#storylink=cpy
