Morehouse College fundamentally changed the trajectory of my life and I feel a deep responsibility to ensure Morehouse is well-positioned to do the same for future generations of students.
There are far too many to list, so I will take this opportunity to recognize those who have passed on. In loving and appreciative memory of Mr. Benjamin McClaurin, Dean Thomas Blocker, Dr. Cheryl Allen, and Mr. Bill Taggert.
Howard Thurman famously stated that “Over the heads of her students, Morehouse holds a crown that she challenges them to grow tall enough to wear.” As trustees, one of our central responsibilities is to preserve this proverbial crown.
