Musical selections will be performed by the AU Gospel Choir, under the direction of Sylstea Sledge. 

As we begin a new year, please join me to renew our commitments to the institutional values we share with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—social justice, ethics, diversity, and service. I hope you will participate in this important annual event.
