MLK Commemorative Celebration 2021

The Office of Diversity and Inclusion presented a week-long celebration of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Events were designed to facilitate both reflection and action toward a better appreciation of and respect for the dignity of every person. While each of us has the power to make a difference ourselves, we can make the biggest impact when we work together. On Thursday, January 28, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion hosted the MLK Commemorative Celebration. This year’s program featured a conversation with Dr. Bernice A. King and the awarding of the annual Chancellor’s “Fulfilling the Dream” Award. Dr. Bernice A. King is the daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King. She serves as the CEO of The King Center and is also a minister, activist, and highly renowned speaker.
