I graduated from Dillard University in 1998. It was one of the most positive experiences that has ever happened to me. I sincerly hope that Dillard will rebound after Katrina. This institution of higher learning is a beacon light in education. Long live fair Dillard!!!

My daughter was a student at Dillard U before and after Hurricane Katrina and I must commend your University on its ability to forge forward after such tradegy. My daughter chose not to return back to the city after finishing her semester after Katrina. But I continue to pray for your city and school success.
