Hello All:
Greetings to all my fellow Lincoln Alumni!
It is so great to be greeting you on the other
side of 2020 - now in 2021 and to look back at all we've done over the
past year.
We've so much to be thankful for - we have a new President
in the personage of Joe Biden! We have the first ever female,
African American Vice President, and HBCU graduate, and a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha - one of the most prestigious Sororities, Kamala Harris!
Lincoln University has been the recipient of
one of the largest and most generous contributions from a single
individual in the amount of $20 Million Dollars - as a marvelous
pre-Christmas gift.
How wonderful and how exciting.
And most important and significant of all is the fact that, WE, over 15,000 Lincoln University Alumni, came together to protect and reinstate our beloved Alumna and President, Dr. Brenda Allen from the assaults and nefarious machinations of a Board of mis-trustees who had gone off the rails and had put personal interest and greed ahead of the best interest of our Alma Mater!
Our unity, our devotion, our dedication let to our
ultimate defeat of their efforts, and the triumphant return of Dr. Brenda Allen to her righteous place as President of Lincoln. This is both epic and heroic.
Without her at the helm, none of the foregoing would have happened. And because of her, we are rising in the realm of HBCUs.
Without her love and dedication for Lincoln University, we would not have come through the Covid Pandemic and given hundreds of freshmen students, as well as upper class students the vital education they need, and set them on their paths to continued greatness.
So, starting the year off right, the AALUPA is
hosting Dr. Brenda Allen as our guest of honor for our first meeting of
2021 - Virtually, of course. We'd all collectively love to give her a
big hug and a show of gratitude for all she's done to and for Lincoln.
However, since that's not possible, we're asking everyone to kick in a
contribution so we can present her with a special gift.
We'd set a goal
of $3,000 - but also realize that this has been a tough year all
around. So we're asking you to please be as generous as
you possibly can so that we can demonstrate our love and appreciation for Dr. Allen.
