“Black Greeks” to sponsor lecture; educational Caribbean cruise planned; $300,000 donated to YSU for scholarships

Abstract

As part of the Student Organization Leadership Series, YSU’s “Black Greeks” (an affiliate of the National Pan Hellenic Council) and the Special Events Committee of Student Government will sponsor a lecture by Rev. Tyrone Crider. Rev. Crider, the former national director for Jesse Jackson PUSH program, will speak on the subject of leadership styles. A Caribbean cruise combining education and enjoyment is being sponsored by YSU for March 26-April 5. The ship will sail along Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula and Central America. During the cruise, Mayan culture and science will be examined. President Neil Humphrey was presented with a check for over $300,000 from the attorney for the estate of Lucille G. Fedor. The money will be used to establish a scholarship fund for undergraduates and graduate students pursuing degrees in elementary education.
