Markers

Since arriving at UGA—now 44 years ago—I have always yearned for tangible ways that I and other African American UGA community members could see ourselves and our heritage celebrated on campus.

So it was momentous to join in celebration recently with my fellow brothers and sisters, as UGA dedicated new markers for the nine historically Black sororities and fraternities. These beautiful new granite markers, set in the heart of campus on the West Lawn of the Tate Student Center, are another permanent reminder that we are celebrated here and acknowledged for all our years of contributions.

In knowing what these markers mean for me and so many others, I am beyond thrilled, humbled, and so very grateful.

To this upcoming season of Thanksgiving, I add my special gratitude and a wish that all may be seen and celebrated here.
