The annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Celebration is one of USI’s signature events, featuring an inspiring keynote speaker and draws a large audience from campus and the surrounding community. Past speakers have included actors, journalists, judges, authors, and Olympians. This luncheon honors Dr. King’s legacy and celebrates his enduring impact on society.
The event is sponsored by the Student Life Office and supported by community partners and sponsors which vary each year.
We are so excited to host a luncheon in honor of the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. at the University of Southern Indiana on Monday, January 19th, 2026, and we hope that you are able to join us in community and fellowship to recognize the importance of this day in our nation's history.
The event will begin at 11 a.m. in Carter Hall with more program details to come.
