Challenge accepted and fulfilled. We are thankful for the collective efforts of our students, alumni, and employees. May this fill your evening with laughter. Fisk University #FiskForever

Despite the obvious pretext, if the oppressor was Great Britain & she was an American Revolutionist & her complexion was different, we would have a very different conversation. In the simplest terms that’s not right and hypocritical #HarrietTubman #Patriot washingtonpost.com/history/2019/0…

Join us at Germantown Pub throughout the month of June as we help raise funds for our scholars! Every Thursday in June starting June 6th!

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers, dads, husbands, grandfathers, etc. Fatherhood is easily the hardest and most rewarding job you will ever have. Enjoy it because time fleeting and memories, good or bad, can last a lifetime. #FathersDay19

Yesterday was a difficult day as we made some personnel changes on campus. Among the impacted personnel was long-time ambassador and champion for Fisk, Lynward Berry. Lynward is beloved by all and has been a fixture for generations of Fiskites....

We cannot adequately express our appreciation for his work and diligence over the course of many years. Lynward’s legacy will live on and we look forward to honoring him at Homecoming this fall.

I know there are a lot of feelings around the recent news. I have spoken to Lynward personally about this;it was not done perfunctorily or without conversation. Contrary to the prominence and years of use of the most popular spelling,I can assure you his name is spelled correctly

Historic #HBCU @FISK1866 experienced plenty of turmoil for a good part of a decade. But in the 2018-19 year, the school saw record fundraising and continued enrollment gains. tennessean.com/story/news/edu… via @tennessean

We continue to work diligently and have seen some gratifying results in the first two years. We are focused on outcomes and opportunities. Higher Education has changed, and our strategy must be nimble to adapt. #transformationtuesday tennessean.com/story/news/edu…

Awesome week in Nashville preceding the culminating #MLKDay events. Ask yourself how to make the fire for justice last within you all year long. Ask yourself what Dr. King truly fought for. It was a broadband of civil rights which challenged social norms that still persist today

Today I am thankful. Today we are thankful. No students injured and campus was unscathed besides power outage. My home sustained a bit of damage but nothing like what I have seen in my neighborhood. My heart and prayers go out to the families that lost more, including loved ones.

Given rapidly changing events, and out of an abundance of caution, we will move to complete online course delivery and a virtual campus beginning Monday, March 16 until further notice. The safety and security of our students, faculty, and staff is our highest priority. Fisk University

The last two weeks have been exceedingly tough for us all. I have been very reflective, introspective, and honestly disturbed. We want to make this unequivocal. Fisk University stands alongside those who are protesting against police brutality, systemic racism, and oppression...

...We always have and always will advocate for social justice. We will be hosting a community conversation for our students, faculty, and staff to talk about a holistic university response to what our nation faces right now. This is the moment. We plan to act. Fisk University

I decided to write about what I have been feeling recently. Of course, these are my own words and should not be interpreted as Fisk University’s official stance on recent events. I’m a WordPress novice so go easy on me. romesmuse.wordpress.com/blog-2/

Juneteenth. That is all. #FiskForever

I am incredibly saddened by the passing of Rep. John Lewis. His unceasing courage, leadership, and service beginning with the Civil Rights Movement are unrivaled. He was a trailblazer, icon, and role model to so many. A Fisk alum and an exemplary American. bit.ly/39acJJR
