Help Me Pay It Forward

  

In 1970, I graduated from Bennett College For Women. Bennett College encouraged me to explore, grow and spread my wings.  It served as a solid foundation that enabled me to earn a Professional Degree from The University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill in 1973 and to enjoy a fulfilling  career as a librarian, dedicated to expanding the knowledge-base of people of all races, faiths, professions and beliefs.

Now, forty-five (45) years later, I need your help to ensure that Bennett College can continue to send other young women forward to make a difference in the world.

What the world needs now is educated women (and men) who know who they are and who will work for the good of all humanity. Bennett has a history of producing just such graduates. Please give so that Bennett College for Women can continue  to achieve its mission of educating compassionate, committed women of excellence.

I am requesting donations in multiples of 45 to commemorate my 45th anniversary.

Please give:

–$4.50   –$45.00   –$450.00   –$4500.00

Please know that all contributions will be greatly appreciated.

New video in Vanderbilt rape case revealed on ABC’s ’20/20′

Horror of Horrors on 1 of the nation’s top university campuses!

It is striking to see the pictures of 2 rapists, side by side.  No hoodies, no bathrobe and no unshaven faces. Just 2, apparently, clean-cut young men who, as college athletes, could probably have had their pick of young women to date on campus — Proof positive that rape is an act of violence against women.  The video proved that this young woman, certainly, was not having fun.

Things that make me go “umm”

Andrea Mitchell reported today on MSNBC that “some sort of explosive device” went off at an NAACP building in Colorado. This from the same reporter who has been bringing us detailed reports of the terrorist activity taking place in France.

Somehow, I think I need more information about terrorist activity in the United States than that taking place in another continent.

Just sayin’…#NAACPBombing
