What's going on fellow Saluki and hats off to you as a charter member!
Those are women about business down there. We collaborated together for National Aids Awareness week to bring your Soror Rae Lewis Thornton (phenomenal) down to speak, when I was vice pres of the Black Student Union or what is now the Black Affairs Council. You know I had no idea what a saluki was when I first got there. Your right we still think of ourselves as a little HBCU within a PWI and we still have weight on the campus. Enough that we can bring quality programs for AA students to Carbondale. They still scared of us
, but what we are doing now can't compare to what your generation did when you were there, I seen the pictures, you guys on BUSINESS big time.
Ladygreek are you coming down for black alumni weekend in July??
