Tom Joyner is one of a kind! He showed up today as @MorganStateU Commencement Speaker with nearly $4,000 in cash in $5 bills and gave one to each graduate. He challenged each one to grow that $5 into millions and then give some of it back to beloved Morgan. Powerful!

I am not going to even pretend that I can do this.But, after the pandemic, I would like to see “old school” guys like us (Alphas, Iotas, Kappas, Sigmas,and Omegas) show the current generation a few classic steps.I think I can still “break it down” a little bit.😀Happy Homecoming!

Today,I recorded my message to the May 2020 graduates. It will be part of the Virtual Recognition Ceremony (VRC) on May 16th at 10:00 a.m. The VRC is a Commencement Ceremony but simply a recognition ceremony. Commencement for the May 2020 graduates will be October 15, 2020. 🙏

We will not be deterred from “Growing the Future and Leading the World.” I’m calling on the FBI to vigorously investigate this threat to our National Treasure, and to our other sister HBCUs across the nation.

If u are planning to attend the National Treasure, @MorganStateU , this fall, wear a mask this summer and practice social distancing! It’s that simple! Assume I’m the POTUS, and this is my message to all of you!
