Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Memorial Luncheon is Monday, January 21, 2008 at 11am in Carter Hall.
The theme this year is "Investing in Your Community-Are You Making a Deposit or Withdrawal?"
The Keynote speaker is Coach Herman Boone. Coach Boone's inspirational story was captured in the Disney film "Remember the Titans" starring Denzel Washington. He has also had personal experiences with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and his accomplishment includes helping a Virginian community set aside racial intolerance .
Coach Boone is a native of Rocky Mount, North Carolina and he received his bachelor's and master's degrees from North Carolina College in Durham. He decided to become a teacher and coach so that he might motivate students. Collectively, Boone's football teams amassed an astonishing record of 99 wins and eight losses during his tenure.
