"As I sign out as the 21st Mister Huston-Tillotson University, I reflect on this incredible journey with deep gratitude and pride. Representing our beloved institution has been one of the greatest honors of my life, and I thank each of you for the support, encouragement, and inspiration you’ve given me along the way.
From my early involvement in the African American Male Teacher Initiative, I began to understand the importance of purpose, service, and legacy. That understanding only deepened as I grew through leadership opportunities, attending the NASAP Student Leadership Institute and the HBCU Kings and Queens Conference, where I connected with leaders from across the nation who share a vision for Black excellence.
I leave this role with a heart full of memories, lessons, and love for the Hilltop. While my term has come to an end, my service to Huston-Tillotson does not. I will continue to uplift and represent this institution in all that I do."

"Through every challenge, late night, and moment of hesitation, she stayed focused, worked hard, and most importantly, kept God first. Her journey is a testament to faith, perseverance, and grace. By trusting in His plan and leaning on His strength, she has not only earned her degree but also grown into the amazing woman God created her to be. So thank you HT and I can’t wait to see what the future holds. Proverbs 31:25 🤍"

Last week, we proudly celebrated our brilliant Honors Students and Top Ranking Graduates! The atmosphere was filled with joy, pride, and purpose as we recognized the dedication, resilience, and excellence of our scholars.
Pastor Clark challenged us with a powerful and empowering assignment: “Living on mission.” These three words remind us that our success is not just about what we achieve but why we achieve it.
Scholars, academics is not just about grades, it`s about growth. It’s about sharpening your mind, expanding your vision, and preparing to lead, serve, and uplift your community. You are called to rise with intention, to use your knowledge to make an impact, and to walk boldly in purpose.
Stay focused. Stay faithful. Stay on mission. The world needs what you carry. #HTYou #HT150
