Class of '76 Graduate: I have not visited the campus grounds in many years but recall they were beautiful vista views from every direction within a perfect rural setting. The sun seem to always shine there. I understand many new and modern buldings now compliment this historically rich African American institution. I highly recommend attending this school if you wish to secure a foothold for a prosperous life.

Class of 89 graduate...the best experience of my life. The school was intimate enough so that you could be recognized as an individual and not just a number.
