Join Ithaca College as we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during our MLK Campus-Wide Celebration Event! On Monday, January 19, 2015, students, staff, faculty and community members will honor Dr. King by coming together to discuss the relevance of his work today.
'Whose dream is it anyway?' is the theme for this year's program.
Some highlights of this year’s celebration include:
- Free community breakfast with a morning address by Professor Derek Adams*
- Grab 'n’ Go Film "All that Remains" presented by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and SGA President Crystal Kayiza, '15*
- 7 Educational Workshops in the morning and afternoon that feature presentations from both professors and students.*
