#HailMary: students peacefully protest
Heres what lead to the protest
Throughout the
fall semester, students
remain uneasy about
the overall environment
at B-CU. Recently,
there have been
rumors regarding
B-CU's accreditation,
legal issues pertaining
to former president,
Edison O. Jackson, and
the school's financial
situation.
Some students have
taken to social media to
express their feelings.
#HAILMARY and
#SaveOurSchool are
trending hashtags on
Twitter and Instagram
that students have
posted in response to
what they believe is the
board of trustee's lack
of transparency.
Last week Student
Government Association
(SGA) President,
Derenzo Thomas held
an emergency student
meeting to talk about
the perceived stakes,
Grimes's final months
as president, what
students should do
during this time and
the Student Government
Association's plan
of action.
At this student
meeting, Thomas
answered questions
directly from students
and guaranteed change.
