3. Which college did Ashley attend?

Answer: University of Kentucky

Although the University of Kentucky was not one of Ashley's first choices (such as Georgetown, the University of California at Berkeley, Duke University, and the University of Virginia), she went there because Naomi didn't let her apply to any schools outside of a certain area. Naomi wanted her daughter to be close to Nashville.

She never officially graduated from the University of Kentucky; she was short three hours.

4. What were two of Ashley's areas of study while in college?

Answer: French major, Anthropology minor

While in college, Ashley majored in French and had minors in anthropology, art history, acting, and woman's studies. Later she would donate $50,000 to the anthropology department at the University of Kentucky to create a scholarship called the Susan Abbott-Jamieson Dissertation Research Fund. Susan Abbott-Jamieson had been one of Ashley's favorite anthropology teachers at the University.

5. In order to be close to her mom and sister, Ashley cleaned their tour bus for how much a day?

Answer: $10

An excerpt from Dickerson's book "Ashley Judd: Crying on the Inside:" "In the summer of 1985 Ashley joined Naomi and Wynonna on the road. They allowed her to travel on the bus with them, but only on condition that she clean the bus every day. For her services they agreed to pay the modern-day Cinderella ten dollars a day."

Answer: True

This movie was made in 2000 and it's one of my personal favorites. It's great how Lexie Coop names her children after "snack-foods."
