It is about time that I read about a black man trying to buy an EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION and not having the biggest house on MTVCribs or whatever it is they call that show.
I wish Mr. Joyner all the best and as a recent HBCU graduate, I can only ponder the ways in which I can help (other than financially). I also wish that Black Enterprise, Ebony, Essence or any of our fine African American media outlets brought attention to his attempt to purchase Morris Brown or any other institution years ago. I wonder if at least one of them will cover it in their next issues.
It should not be left to Mr. Joyner to rebuild Morris Brown... this should be a community effort. I guess my question is what are you willing to do to help the cause? Me personally, I wish there was a way I could be more helpful to their SGA, as I was an ACTIVE member of mine for majority of the four and a half years I was at T. I think the SGA has a responsibility and an obligation to help any one, not just Mr. Joyner, who has enough interest in Morris Brown to help them get the school back on its feet. I'm not picking on Morris Brown's SGA... I am just suggesting that they be more vocal about the students needs and be more VOCAL about making sure that any money, time and effort is devoted to building a better school and providing more resources for the students.
