- Summary
- Academic administrator Chester Grundy was born on August 22, 1947 in Louisville, Kentucky. He grew up in the city's California neighborhood and enrolled at the University of Kentucky where he graduated in 1969. Upon his father's death shortly afterwards, Grundy took a job with the university to help support his family. As director of the school's Office of African American Student Affairs, Grundy had responsibility for the creation of programs to bring African American culture to the campus. As interim vice president for student affairs at Kentucky State University, Grundy helped facilitate dialogue between the predominantly black school and the University of Kentucky. He was laid off in 2013, but promptly rehired after public protest. Outside of the university, Grundy co-founded the Roots & Heritage Festival and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration.
