Help LWC Win the 'Battle of the Bumpers'
Now is the time for LWC alumni and friends in Kentucky to purchase
a special Lindsey Wilson license plate from their Kentucky County
Clerks offices. The license plate increases awareness of LWC and
also raises funds for student scholarships; $10 from the sale of
each plate goes to the Lindsey Wilson Fund to support student
scholarships. Kentucky's 20 private colleges and universities hold
a friendly competition among the institutions -- nicknamed the
"Battle of the Bumpers" -- to see which campus can sell the most
plates annually. Help LWC win the battle! To find contact
