The purpose and mission of The Society is to foster a sense of community, loyalty, and support among WKU Black alumni and to fortify their ties to WKU; to actively contribute to the recruitment, retention, and graduation of Black students; and to champion the appointment, retention, promotion, and advancement of Black faculty, staff, and administrators at WKU. We strive to do this all while celebrating the traditions, embracing the present, and influencing the future of WKU’s Black student and alumni experience.
