Dr. Baney says she's most looking forward to getting to know all the students and faculty and learning about Kentucky! I am also excited to teach a brand-new class that I created, called Cutting Edge Kindness. Everyone should sign up!!

Some fun facts about Dr. Baney: She just qualified for her first national Oly weightlifting competition, and she is working with other CHS faculty to get a strength club going at EKU.
