The Birmingham Chapter of the Tennessee State University National Alumni Association will hold our annual Scholarship Brunch on Saturday, January 4, at 11 a.m. at the Harbert Center in downtown Birmingham. This is our primary fundraiser to assist deserving high school students from the Greater Birmingham area in attending Tennessee State University.
The guest speaker will be the newly inaugurated eighth president of TSU, Dr. Glenda Baskin Glover. Dr. Glover was formerly the Dean of the College of Business at Jackson State University in Jackson, Mississippi where she spearheaded the implementation of the nation’s only Ph.D. in Business at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). She is a certified public accountant, an attorney, and is one of two African American women to hold the Ph.D-CPA-JD combination in the nation. Additionally, one of our own alums, Rev. Dr. Michael Wesley, Sr., community leader and pastor of Greater Shiloh Baptist Church in Birmingham, will be this year’s honoree. Join us early at the Sip and Shop from 10a.m. to 11a.m. where vendors will offer diverse products for our alums and guests.
We are proud to welcome Dr. Glover to the “Magic City” as well as invite the community to join us at the brunch and help deserving students.
