    It’s a shame what Morris Brown is going through considering how long they have been around.

    Clnmike, I too am sad to see the difficulties that Morris Brown is facing. I hope the institution will pull through.

    Sokari, thanks for stopping in! Come back next Wednesday (or sooner). I have something special in store.

    I’m a very proud 97′ graduate of Morris Brown and I simply love this photo. I’ve seen this picture hanging in our administration building. MBC will thrive again.
