Dear Howard Alum,

It was not that long ago that I stepped onto Howard’s "Hilltop” as a freshman from Georgia full of Freshman anticipation. Drew Hall, the Quad and the Yard were filled with students of every hue. We were at the starting gate of a brand-new school year and we were ready to make our mark.

Every year since I have fostered a sense of hopeful expectancy as summer draws to a close and a new year begins at “The Mecca.” This year is no exception.

For the first time in our history we are greeting a new class of students in a virtual world. Yet they have the same unbridled passion that we all had when we joined the Howard community. Howard’s aim is to “develop scholars and professionals who drive change and engage in scholarship that provides solutions to contemporary global problems, particularly ones impacting the African Diaspora.”

We invite you to join us on September 17, 2020 at 7pm eastern time on the Alumni Insights Call where I will talk with President Wayne Frederick about this bold new alumni call to action.

Until then be well and stay safe!

Yours in Truth and Service,

Charlie Lewis, President
Howard University Alumni Association
