Please join us for a wonderful buffet dinner and program honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his legacy!

In addition to the great food and the ambiance crafted by the amazing Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center staff, there will be a Keynote speaker, Graduate and Undergraduate speakers, as well as musical performances. MSU President Dr. Kevin M. Guskiewicz and Vice President and Chief Inclusion Officer Dr. Jabbar Bennett will give remarks. The recipients of the MLK Endowed Scholarship will also be announced.

The Keynote Speaker this year is Dr. Terry Flennaugh, Associate Dean of Access and Community Engagement in the Department of Teacher Education. Also an associate professor, he specializes in race, culture and equity in education. His research focuses primarily on the educational experiences of Black males and other students of color in urban contexts. Utilizing both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, he examines the sense-making processes involved in constructing identities that lead to high academic performance in urban schools. He also studies issues of educational access and equity for communities of color in addition to single-sex educational spaces for urban youth.
