Dear Yale Students and Extended Community,

Fifty years ago today our country experienced arguably the most important mass movement in US history referred to as the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom or the Great March on Washington. Ironically, the 50th anniversary lands on the exact day of the week, more importantly the nation's first African American president will deliver the address.

It was this event (and others) that inspired the Nation and her young leaders in institutions of higher learning to make a profound difference.

Just a quick shot from today's Peer Liaison and Freshman Counselor Open House! Thanks to all who stopped by!
