Posted By: Leshell Hatley on June 06, 2010 Greetings Everyone! We are officially back for our hiatus as we allowed time for our staff to finish this past semester. We are pleased to be back with daily features of Black Scholars - we actually missed being immersed in the great work conducted around the country and beyond. Thanks for your patience and we hope you welcome us back into your lives on a daily basis! With that, here is a recap of this past week of great Black Scholars: Monday, May 31st - Happy Memorial Day! Although we didn't have a BSI feature this day, we did feature a post from AKILA WORKSONGS, Inc. - according to some, evidence shows that the first Memorial Day was started May1865 - 145 years ago this month - by formerly enslaved Africans in South Carolina (video clip) -http://www.postandcourier.com/news/2009/may/24/the_first_memorial_day83450/ [HBCU Presidents] Tuesday, June 1, 2010 - The Black Scholars Index celebrates Dr. Helen T.

ALSO ON BSI: Be Featured on BSI! As we move forward throughout the month of June, we'd like to feature and congratulate recent high school graduates who are entering college this coming fall. If you or anyone you know should be featured, please send a bio, pic, and optional video to featured@blackscholarsindex.com. We also welcome anyone else who might want to be featured. If this is of interest to you, please send the above information as well. Summer Enrichment We are aware that some of you use our daily features as summer enrichment. This year, we will post additional information, games, and scavenger hunts to support you in this effort. Please watch out for more in the coming weeks! We are excited about bringing your more throughout the summer months. Until then, please enjoy the rest of your weekend! A million thanks for your continued support! -BSI Staff The Black Scholars Index http://www.blackscholarsindex.com/ If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
