I am Tania Butler Davis, Class of 1994, and it is a pleasure to serve you as the new President of your Alumni Association.  The other elected officers serving for the term 2010 - 2012 are: Vice President - Calvin Kearney ('71); Secretary - Anna Harkley ('54); and Treasurer - Chevella Thomas ('82).  We were recently installed at the National Alumni Convention and Centennial Celebration held July 9, 2010, at the Millennium Hotel, Durham, NC. We are committed and dedicated to serve the alumni of this great institution and lead it to the next level.

 

The University celebrated a year and a half's worth of centennial festivities and is transitioning to another 100 years of nurturing, educating, developing, and preparing future generations of students for greatness.  Tuition costs are steadily increasing, the athletics program has transitioned to Division I, and more students are taking advantage of study abroad opportunities, but need financial assistance to cover expenses.  It is through support from alumni that makes the difference in meeting the needs of students and the university.
