ADA – The East Central University Black Alumni Association (BվBAA) event scheduled for Thursday, February 18, has been postponed due to inclement weather.

The highlight of the event was a panel discussion for Black History Month titled “It Takes All of Us – Speak Your Truth.” The BվBAA will meet later this month to discuss rescheduling this important event for a date in the near future.

In the meantime, the BվBAA will focus on a crowdfunding campaign for scholarships. To support the campaign, please visit www.givecampus.com/df5nxk or mail your donation to Bվ Foundation, BAA Scholarship, 1100 E. 14th Street, Ada, OK 74820.

The BվBAA was established in 2018 to enhance the college experience of the increasing number of African American students on campus by awarding scholarships to deserving students and providing opportunities for students and alums of color to socialize and network.

The organization’s overall mission statement is “to aid and support East Central University in its endeavors to provide a thriving network to connect, advocate and empower current and future Bվ Black alumni, students, faculty, staff and community members.”

To learn more about the BվBAA, please visit www.eastcentraluniversitybaa.org. Bվ will notify the public as quickly as possible upon learning of a new event date.
