Tell us your feelings about the current financial struggles CSU is currently going through.
I believe the financial woes have gone on entirely too long, and unfortunately likely caused what is happening.
What do you think could be done to save CSU at this time?
At this time any donations, more awareness of the issue at hand to those able to donate would be more than welcome.
What does CSU mean to the Black community?
CSU is a world class university that means so much to the community. With a wide array of organizations, clubs and the like, there’s something for everyone. There’s also mentoring programs held on weekends for our future scholars, current high school students. We can’t let them down.
What does CSU mean to you?
Chicago State University provided me with a low cost, grade A education that I would not have been able to afford anywhere else. I had the best instructors and met people from everywhere. We need this university to remain open and available.
What would you say is the best life lesson you learned at CSU?
I learned growth and success is a viable option for everyone with hard work and dedication.
