    Morehouse has given rise to generations of men who lead movements, teach justice, and live with purpose. I aspire to follow in those footsteps—not just for me, but for the people who believe in me, and for the legacy I carry. My journey is only beginning, but I know who I want to be. I want to be a Morehouse Man who turns loss into leadership, grief into growth, and memory into motivation.

 A Morehouse Man is a man of consequence. A Morehouse man must use what they have learned in the classroom as well as what they have learned during their time at Morehouse to lead and serve their community. A Morehouse man is responsible for the generation that comes after him, the legacy that he leaves behind impacts the future 

When I graduate from

Morehouse College and am put in a position of success, I want to help future students fully

matriculate without fear of debt. However, I feel that it is my duty to first and foremost care for

the poor around me, support children in need, and do what I can to fight against systemic

problems in whichever area I live in. I truly believe that to achieve the fifth “well” of a

Morehouse Man, well-balanced, we need to balance giving back to Morehouse and paying

forward to those who are less fortunate.

  The Morehouse Man is a force for change. He leads, serves, and inspires. I am ready to step into that legacy, to take what I have learned from my experiences and use it to uplift those around me. The world needs Morehouse Men, men who are ready to make a difference, no matter the obstacles they face.  

  A Morehouse Man is not defined just by academic success or prestige. He is shaped by how he responds to adversity, and how he serves his community. He doesn’t just seek success; he seeks significance. Through my grandfather’s lessons, I’ve come to understand that changing the world starts with changing yourself. That starts with discipline, purpose, and heart. 

I’ve learned that success isn’t defined by simply getting into college, but by discovering the purpose behind the work. At Morehouse, I’m pursuing my passion for biology because people’s health is truly wealth. Understanding how diseases work and how to prevent them is the path I’m committed to. Morehouse will be the foundation that prepares me to make a meaningful impact in the world.

 "Without a doubt, attending Morehouse College was one of the best decisions that I have made in my short life. It is hard to describe the joy I felt on that great Sunday morning in May 2013 when I walked across the stage on the Century Campus, finally becoming a Morehouse Man. The Baltimore Morehouse Alumni Association and the Morehouse Golf Classic were crucial in helping me achieve that goal. On multiple occasions, the Baltimore Morehouse Alumni Association provided financial assistance to help me pay for the increasingly expensive cost of attending college. I am forever indebted to this organization."
