Registration Now Available for Black Alumni Society's Biennal Reunion

The U of A Black Alumni Society will host its biennial reunion April 12-18. During the biennial reunion, BAS will honor eight awardees in four categories for their service to the society, the university and the community. This group of honorees embody the theme for the reunion: Connect with the Past, Engage and Be Present, and Inspire for the Future.

"We know that our University of Arkansas experience did not end with a cap, gown and degree on sheepskin paper," Bowden said. "Those symbols of completion were actually a call to higher service and a reminder that we are caretakers of the lighthouse. Our shared experiences connect us in a special way, and the farther we cast our light, the sharper our vision becomes for the tasks that lie ahead."
