BILL HISTORY

January 17 is our nation's newest national holiday, celebrating the birth and life of
Dr. Martin Luther King. This year students have the opportunity to participate in a
conference that embraces the teachings of Dr. King and stresses the active,
positive role students have in changing their surroundings. Students will have the
opportunity to meet the people who were instrumental in the Civil Rights
Movement and discuss with them the legacy we have inherited and the work left to
be done. Workshops will include: Higher Education--is it a Priority?; a workshop
on financial aid, funding and access; Race Relations Within the University, The
College Commitment to Civil Rights, The War on Drugs, and more.

other post secondary educational institutions in working on Civil Rights, and the
advancement of higher education while participating in an important na tiona!
holiday.
