VUU students dance for breast cancer awareness (Victor Harper)
This week on Virginia Union University’s campus was eventful as usual, but this week brought something that students have never seen before. New student organization Abstract Dance Team held a program on November 1st called Dance 4 A Cure to raise awareness on Breast Cancer. During the week, Abstract had tables set up in the Henderson Center (VUU’s student center) accepting donations and selling wristbands and awareness ribbons.
Representatives from the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation were in attendance providing pamphlets and other supplemental information, and answering whatever questions the audience had. The program was extremely inspirational and consisted of not only dance, but other talents such as singing and poetry. Breast Cancer Survivors were in attendance sharing their testimonies and initial reactions to when they first discovered they had the disease, and providing support for the cause.
The President, Amanda Pope, had even asked me to share a poem. Although I had no prior experience with any relatives or family friends with Breast Cancer, I lost my grandmother to Lung Cancer back in January. I shared a poem on its impact to my life with an optimistic viewpoint.
The talent in the room that night was utterly amazing. My favorite part of the program was the end number when the member of Abstract Dance Team performed a number to Beyonce’s hit single Run the World (Girls). It conveyed a powerful message because of it’s underlying theme about the strength of women: “Strong enough to bear the children and get back to business.” You have to” fight like a girl” to beat Breast Cancer, and Abstract Dance Team did just that.
You can dance anywhere, even if only in your heart. -Anon

In the past the denim shirt was used in the navy as a part of the sailors everyday uniform while aboard the ships. For along time after that they became a part of mens casual wear, but not anymore. These days the denim shirt is a staple in the closet of stylish women everywhere.
At the start of this trend some wondered how on earth a basic denim shirt can ever be made fashionable , but it’s actually easier then you could ever imagine. If you plan on making your denim shirt a permanent part of your wardrobe stock your closet with colored and/or black skirts, a comfy pair of khakis , and even a black pair of jeans or leggings.
Bennett College is a small, private, and relatively unknown HBCU for women. It is located in the heart of Greensboro, North Carolina, but doesn’t receive as much national attention as its counterpart, North Carolina A&T State University. Though the liberal arts institution isn’t chosen often for a “top ten colleges to attend” list, there is a plethora of talent and entrepreneurial spirits here.
Meet Eny Oh. The Bennett College alumna, who graduated in 2011 with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science, founded In the Eye of the Beholder EL in her final three months as an undergraduate college student. Though Oh loved making women feel beautiful through hair and makeup styling, she never imagined herself as the CEO of her own brand fresh out of college.
“If you would have asked me where I would be seven months ago, it would have been graduate school. I wanted to go graduate school and then law school, but after speaking to more than 300 firms in Greensboro and 300 in D.C., I didn’t hear the answer I wanted to hear.”
A chance encounter with Tameka Raymond, Usher’s ex-wife, during All-Star weekend changed Oh’s perspective on her future ambitions.
“I spoke to her. She inspired me,” Oh says. “My life was never the same. I realized that I could create something around event planning, styling, and consulting because those are three things that I’ve always loved.”
With the assistance of six other people, including interns and one web designer, In the Eye of the Beholder was created. In the development stage, Oh struggled with finding funds to upstart the company and balancing her duties as a student with her role as CEO.
She says, “I didn’t have a job in college. I was doing hair and makeup to start the brand and the website. I really don’t know how I did it all.”
What Oh does know is that her brand will have longevity because of all that it offers to clients.
In the Eye of the Beholder EL dabbles in several areas including an online boutique, event planning, one-on-one fashion consulting, extensions, and custom designed decorations and invitations. The website boasts that their company makes dreams come true.
Several months after the initial launch, In the Eye of the Beholder EL’s success is Oh’s dream coming true as well.
The D.C. native says, “I believed in myself from the beginning. People may say this looks so easy or that I didn’t go to college to study makeup and hair. But, I believed in myself. Self-confidence is key. I made a decision that I didn’t want to work for anybody. I wanted to have my own brand and not have to slave for anybody else. I literally graduated from college and started my own brand.”
Her advice to others who wants to follow in her stiletto’s footprints is to “have a plan and make sure this is something you can see yourself doing for the rest of your life.”

Noted author and screenwriter, Terry McMillan, was the featured speaker at Bennett College on Thursday, November 3, 2011. She was one of several prominent women, including Dr. Maya Angelou and Roslyn Brock, brought to the college as a Lift Every Voice speaker. The Lift Every Voice series is one component of the Academic Cultural Enrichment Series (ACES), which is a standing tradition at Bennett.
ACES gathers the entire campus community together in the chapel each Tuesday and Thursday at 11 a.m. to hear speakers discuss their personal journeys to success and other issues that are relevant to students’ lives. The Lift Every Voice series, named after James Weldon Johnson’s famed “Negro National Anthem,” was established by Bennett’s 15th President, Dr. Julianne Malveaux.
The Annie Merner Pfeiffer Chapel was filled to near capacity with students, faculty, staff, and alumnae lining both the floor seats and the balcony. All of the campus community waited patiently to hear what inspiring and prophetic words McMillan brought with her to share.
Chardette Campbell, a freshman, had the privilege of presiding over the program. After Dr. Malveaux’s welcome and occasion, the prayer from the college’s chaplain, a scripture reading, and a musical selection from the choir, it was time for McMillan to rise and share her wisdom. She did not disappoint.
McMillan commanded attention as she stood to great applause. Rather than giving us a full speech, she chose to read a full chapter from “Getting to Happy,” the bestselling sequel to her successful novel and subsequent film, “Waiting to Exhale.” After spending 20 minutes reading the chapter on Bernadine, one of the heroines that we all know and love, McMillan opened the floor to questions from students. It was there that her foundation of knowledge overflowed.
When sophomore Torene Harvin, Journalism and Media Studies major asked McMillan how she gets happy and remains there, McMillan was more than willing to share.
“You never stay happy.” She continued. “All emotions are fleeting. You are going to get happy, angry, and sad and its okay to experience those emotions. As long as you know who you are, that’s all that matters.”
As Terry sat, I stood up to issue the final reflections.
“Thank you for coming today Ms. McMillan. On behalf of the entire Bennett College community, thank you for telling our stories. At the beginning of her speech, Ms. McMillan said that she was once young. I must disagree. Ms. McMillan is forever young. Her words are as fresh to us today as they were when my mother finally gave me her copy of Waiting to Exhale. The pages were so bent from being read so often, I had to hold them down to get through them. Now, after having read Waiting to Exhale five times in the past six years, I am still connected to Bernadine, Savannah, Gloria, and Robin because they are us. Thank you for telling our stories and giving us the power to tell our own. Belles, we are never too young to start telling our stories. You might get angry, discouraged, or have to work harder than your white counterparts, but once your story is told that can never be undone. You can never unring a Belle.”
Homecoming 2011 was filled with an invigorating and engaging week of events. Dubbed “Sole Prophecy,” homecoming included the annual hip-hop concert and fashion show, neo-soul concert featuring R&B artist Miguel, the Miss Spelman and Miss Maroon and White coronations, a football game against Benedict College, and the first comedy show in six years. All of the activities were planned by student organizations PULSE at Spelman and CASA at Morehouse.
Spelman’s Sisters Chapel launched Homecoming 2011 with an opening worship service on Sunday Oct. 16, featuring Tiffany A. Thomas, C’2008, associate minister at Christ Church in New York City, as guest minister. The service was followed by the annual kickoff jam on the Spelman oval. Students packed the oval to win prizes, enjoy food, music, and camaraderie that was fueled by the stroll competition between Spelman and Morehouse freshman residence halls.
“Culmination,” the hip-hop concert and fashion show took place on Monday at Morehouse College’s Forbes Arena. The stadium was filled with cheering students who were entertained with intermittent dance breaks and performances between runway segments. An intermingling of style and hip-hop culture, the concert featured hip-hop recording artists Kendrick Lamar, Ace Hood, YC and the Future.
Tuesday, students enjoyed the neo-soul concert with R&B artist Miguel, who performed hit singles “Sure Thing” and “All I Want Is You,” in front of a raving audience in a packed Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel.
On Wednesday, Phat Comedy presented the “Lunacy” comedy show in King Chapel. Standup comedians Ronnie Jordan, Gerard Guillory, Khiry Lee, Vanessa Fraction, and Sean Larkins held the audience captive with jokes and humorous skits. Amused students gave standing ovations while laughing hysterically.
On Thursday, the Miss Spelman Coronation featured the courts of various Spelman organizations, a number of colorful and exuberant African and modern dance performances, as well as talent from Miss Spelman, Raavin Evans, and her court. In addition, Morehouse College held the annual Miss Maroon and White coronation, highlighting courts of Morehouse organizations, and featuring the talents of Miss Maroon and White, Lauren Wicker, and her court. Immediately following the production was the 2011 coronation ball, an elegant event where students dressed in formal attire and enjoyed music and refreshments at the Americas Mart in downtown Atlanta.
Morehouse won their football game on Saturday, as the Maroon Tigers defeated Benedict College 34-27, The victory was followed by tailgate, known for being the most celebrated homecoming event. The night was rounded out with a highly lauded step show competition featuring members of the Clark Atlanta Delta Sigma Theta and Phi Beta Sigma organizations, Spelman Alpha Kappa Alpha and Sigma Gamma Rho organizations, Morehouse Omega Psi Phi, Alpha Phi Alpha, and Kappa Alpha Psi organizations, and Norfolk State Iota Phi Theta Alpha Kappa Alpha and Iota Phi Theta were declared victors of the competition.

Louisiana-Lafayette ruined ULM’s chances of a potential bowl invitation in the 2010 finale when the two-win Ragin’ Cajuns blocked an extra point and held on for a 23-22 win in Malone Stadium.
The teams are in somewhat opposite positions this season as the Warhawks (2-6, 1-3 Sun Belt Conference) visit ULL (7-2, 5-1 SBC), who is in contention for its first outright Sun Belt title.
While the matchup could possibly provide extra motivation for a ULM team coming off an emotional overtime loss against Western Kentucky, sophomore quarterback Kolton Browning said it hasn’t been a point of emphasis this week.
“It’s always in the back of your mind, especially with what happened last year,” Browning said. “But this is a new season with a different team.
“We have a lot of the same players, but we have an increased maturity level. We are going out there to compete, make sure we do our part and pull out a victory.”
ULM coach Todd Berry said his team doesn’t view themselves as spoilers.
“We look at ourselves as a football team that wants to play one more game, have one more opportunity,” Berry said. “I want to win just like they do, but I could not be prouder of this football team.
“There are very few football teams in the situation that we are in in terms of all the adversity, that would raise up and respond like that group did. We would love to have the victory, but I will take what I saw because they gave us everything.
“We know what our issues are, but it’s not heart. As long as you have that, when we get healthy, we are pretty good.”
Berry said injuries have severely hampered the Warhawks this season, and the team lost another player in West Monroe graduate and true freshman Tyler Cain.
Despite last Saturday’s loss to Morehouse College, two Fort Valley State University football players were named Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference “Players of the Week.” Senior defensive back Ricky Johnson is this week’s SIAC Defensive Player of the Week and junior wide receiver Christopher Slaughter is the SIAC Newcomer of the Week.
Johnson, a native of Atlanta, Ga., earned the defensive weekly recognition after his 19-tackle performance against the Maroon Tigers. The tackles were a career, single-game high for Johnson. He also finished with one tackle for loss; one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, and one sack.
Slaughter, a native of Fort Valley, was named newcomer of the week after posting seven catches against the Morehouse defense. His seven receptions covered 127 yards and he scored on touchdown passes of 41 and 20 yards. The weekly recognition was the second of the season for Slaughter.
President Ammons announces that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded FAMU an education and research grant totaling $15 million. This is the largest single grant awarded in the history of the University.
(From left to right) LaTrisha Allen, a second-year Ph.D. research student, and Kali Farris, a third-year master’s degree student majoring in environmental science marine toxicology, are examining several fish species to determine their exposure to the oil released in the BP Oil Spill.
Florida A&M University (FAMU) has been awarded an education and research grant totaling $15 million from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to meet the agency’s workforce needs in areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) that support NOAA’s mission. This is the largest single grant awarded in the history of the University.
“One of the highest criteria used to determine the quality of a university is the level of extramural funding and quality of research taking place by faculty and the funding obtained for them to conduct research on a regular basis,” said FAMU President James H. Ammons. “This announcement proves that Florida A&M University meets that standard of excellence.”
With 30 percent of the grant designated for scholarships, FAMU has partnered with Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Delaware State University, Jackson State University, University of Texas at Brownsville, and Creighton University as well as three National Estuarine Research Reserves; Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary; the Gulf of Mexico Alliance; and, the Gulf of Mexico Coastal Ocean Observing System. The grant will provide funds to support students as they pursue NOAA-relevant education, research, and training in environmental science. This grant supports enhancing environmental literacy from K-12 to the doctorate level.
“Our education efforts will focus on training and graduating under-represented minorities and utilize research as a vehicle to educate students, and develop skills relevant to the new economy,” said Michael Abazinge, professor and interim director of the School of the Environment who also serves as the principal investigator for this
A multimillion-dollar instrument that propels subatomic particles to high speeds will have many high-tech applications for researchers at Fayetteville State University, an administrator says.
Other researchers working with similar particle accelerators have helped build better artificial hearts and enhanced the military’s abilities to detect roadside bombs. There even is research into converting human body heat into electricity, which would help soldiers in combat zones.
FSU is in the process of getting the $5 million particle accelerator and about $3 million in other instruments. Daryush Ila, associate vice chancellor for research, said he hopes to have the equipment up and running in 12 to 18 months.
The Naval Research Laboratory in Washington is donating the equipment to FSU because it is moving to a new facility that is not large enough for the accelerator. FSU competed with several other universities for the instruments.
Ila said the instruments will allow researchers at FSU to ionize atoms so they gain or lose electrons, and accelerate the ions to about a tenth the speed of light. The scientists can then use the ions to study materials, modify materials and make new devices. The accelerator, which looks like a large concrete tube with instruments on either end, does not emit any radiation, Ila said.
Next week, he is going to Washington to begin preparations for moving the accelerator and other components, which will require two or three tractor-trailers. FSU Chancellor James Anderson told the university’s board of trustees in September that it might cost $300,000 to move and store the accelerator.
“The cost of excellence is always high,” Anderson said.
FSU officials are planning a building for the accelerator next to a conference center on the site of the former Washington Drive school.
Ila came to FSU in May from Alabama A&M University, where he had served for more than 20 years in research and faculty positions. He was director and co-founder of a research program and helped establish partnerships that resulted in more than $125 million in grants and contracts, including about $40 million from the Department of Defense.

Police have identified a suspect that could crack a case of “eggings” on Wye Oak Drive — a dean at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.
Nicholas R. Blanchard, the 48-year-old dean of the UMES School of Pharmacy and Health Professions, was charged Tuesday with one count of malicious destruction of property in a case Fruitland police say involved egg thrown on a vehicle on Blanchard’s street of town homes in a community called Cedar Commons.
Police had posted additional patrols in the area of Wye Oak Drive after almost a dozen complaints from residents since October about eggs thrown on their vehicles, said Fruitland Police Department Sgt. Chris Shockley. Most of the incidents happened to vehicles parked in spaces near Blanchard’s residence.
Blanchard was informed of the criminal charge through a summons served by Fruitland police. The charge was filed after a witness told police they saw the accused throwing an egg at the witness’ property, Shockley said. Blanchard was not arrested, but rather, informed of the charge and a pending court date, police said.
Police hope egg-throwing incidents in the neighborhood are over. “We’ve had numerous complaints over the past month of egging,” Shockley said Tuesday. “We stepped up patrols in the area because of the complaints. It happened in the same location each time — hitting different cars.
“A neighbor saw the (alleged) act occur, and the criminal summons was issued,” the sergeant also said.
During a period of about six weeks, complaints to police came from different residents in a 10-unit building on Wye Oak Drive, located across the parking lot from the building in which Blanchard lives, Shockley said. “It sounds like a neighbor feud got out of control,” he said.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – House Assistant Democratic Leader James E. Clyburn will serve as the 2011 Florida A&M University (FAMU) fall commencement speaker on Friday, December 16 at 6 p.m. in the Alfred Lawson Jr. Multipurpose Center and Teaching Gymnasium.
Clyburn is the leadership liaison to the Appropriations Committee and one of the Democratic Caucus’ primary liaisons to the White House. Working with the internal caucuses, he plays a prominent role in messaging and outreach.
When Clyburn came to Congress in 1993, he was elected co-president of his freshman class and quickly rose through leadership ranks. He was elected chairman of the congressional Black Caucus in 1999, and his reputation as a leader and consensus-builder helped him win a difficult three-way race for House Democratic Caucus vice chair in 2002.
Three years later, he was unanimously elected chair of the Democratic Caucus. When Democrats regained the House majority in 2006, Clyburn was elevated by his colleagues to House Majority Whip.
As a national leader he has worked to respond to the needs of America’s diverse communities. He championed rural communities supporting the development of regional water projects, community health centers, and broadband connections. He has supported higher education by leading the charge for increased Pell grants and invested millions in science and math programs and historic preservation at historically black colleges and universities.
He has encouraged economic development by securing funding for Empowerment Zones; invested in green technology development such as nuclear, wind, hydrogen and biofuels; and directed 10 percent of Recovery Act funding to communities 20 percent under the poverty level for the past 30 years. Clyburn was instrumental in advancing into law measures to resolve historic discrimination issues, significantly reducing the statutory disparity in cocaine sentencing and compensating African and Native American farmers who suffered racial discrimination under the USDA loan program.
Clyburn and his wife, Emily, have three daughters, Mignon, Jennifer Reed and Angela Hannibal; two sons-in-law, Walter Reed and Cecil Hannibal; and two grandchildren, Walter A Clyburn Reed and Sydney Alexis Reed.
