Dear colleagues,

The African American Studies Program worked with the various offices  on our campus organizing participants for San Antonio’s 30^th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. March on January 16, 2017.  The six buses we helped sponsor, enabled hundreds of students to participate and engage with the meaning of MLK Day.  Our bright orange shirts really helped us stand out. We were so proud to be Roadrunners!

Today, the African American Studies program is proudly inviting you to the MLK Lecture series and reception sponsored by the Office of the President.  This year, our Martin Luther King Jr Speaker is  Renee Watson, manager of the Bexar County Small, Minority and Women Owned business Enterprise (SMWBE Program). She is also a UTSA Alumnae.

Ms. Watson's presentation will center on  "Getting Involved, Getting Engaged, and Getting an Education” which is fitting for this year's topic, A Roadrunner's Journey to Community Service.

We are looking forward to your participation in this event and ask that you note the date and time in your calendars.  A reception will follow for all attendees. 

Please help us kick off Black History Month at UTSA!
