Spend the afternoon in conversation with HBCU education Titans Dr. William Harvey (Hampton University) and Dr. David Kwabena Wilson (Morgan State University) following a film screening of Hampton University: One of the Wonders of the World with Emmy award winning filmmaker Phil Branch. Through this short film visitors will come to understand Dr. Harvey’s incredible 44 year legacy as President of Hampton University, who was an iconic leader in HBCU education and leadership. For more than a decade, Dr. Wilson has not only been a transformative president at Morgan but has emerged as a leader among university presidents nationwide as well as an effective advocate for HBCUs and the role they play in developing leaders and serving the needs of their community, state, and nation. In this enlightening conversation both leaders would discuss their leadership and vision building both of these educational institutions. This program is moderated by Edwin T. Johnson, PhD, Special Assistant to the Provost and University Historian at Morgan State University who is also the chair for The Maryland Commission of African American History and Culture (MCAAHC).
