Minority Day 2008

 

On behalf of the 2008 Minority Day Planning Committee, we would like to cordially invite you to attend the 5th Annual Minority Day, which will be held on Friday, April 11, 2008 from 10:30am – 9:00pm on the campus of Mississippi University for Women. This year’s theme is “A Different World." Check-in starts at 10:30am in the Hogarth Student Center. This program is hosted by members of the IMAGE (Increasing Minority Access to Graduate Education) at Mississippi University for Women.

This program aspires to increase minority high school seniors' awareness in regards to applying and attending college. In addition, students will gain knowledge pertaining to academic offerings, scholarship opportunities, social interaction, and the opportunity to learn about our Summer BRIDGE Institute (June 29th - August 2nd 2008).

If you have any questions about this program, contact Glenda Clark (Chair of Minority Day) or Flapp Cockrell (IMAGE Site Coordinator) at 662 329 7350 or send them an email.
 

Note: This program is only available to graduating high school seniors.

The application process for Minority Day is closed.  We are not accepting anymore applications at this time.
