Chartered Day Service

Despite the fact that I was unable to attend the service, I was still able to get a program. After I read it, I have a good idea as to what Howard University is about.

Howard University is no ordinary university. When its students move on, either into the real world or another institution, they are sure to be leaving more fully self-conscious of who and where they are, and where they intend to go professionally. It also helps students to be more 'thoughtful, energetic, and ethically aware, and more committed to an effective and democratic society in which the civil rights of minorities and the disadvantaged are protected and promoted.' Howard also uses programs of research and community projects in order to help its students confront and act upon their own instincts of leadership.

I am a School of 'B' student, and so far I can say that I am definitely being affected by Howard's Mission in the sense that I am becoming more thoughtful, energetic and so on. Howard is not just a prestigious institution of higher learning, but it is also a home for Blacks who want to learn about their legacy and who also want to place footprints in the sand whilst on their journey to success.

I can definitely say that I am a proud Lady Bison. I'm not only expanding my knowledge, but I am also having fun whilst doing it, and learning more and making additions to help develop my own legacy.
