I oversaw the creation of the program from its physical infrastructure to its curriculum and faculty. I hired core faculty and recruited affiliated faculty. I also acquired three teaching assistantships for the program, which allowed us to train doctoral students to teach the Introduction to African American Studies. Some of my other achievements as director include creating the Scholar-in-Residence Program. AAS brought faculty distinguished in their fields to our institution for one week. These scholars gave public lectures, held workshops for graduate students, mentored junior faculty. Our scholars included Drs. Molefi Asante, Houston Baker, and Paul Finkelman. I created annual film series, and brought in scholars from my institution or from elsewhere to commentator on the films. I also created an annual lecture series which brought in scholars to give public lectures. The African American Studies Program had all of the responsibilities of a department, except control over tenure. Hence, I managed the budget for the program, hired and reviewed staff, including the faculty.My unique accomplishments as the program director including coordinating major conferences, including Freedom Summer, which commemorated the 50th-anniversary of the movement in Mississippi to register black voters and teach students in freedom schools. This program brought many participants in freedom summer back to Mississippi for the first time. I also planned the Ernest Green of the Little Rock Nine event, and included other African Americans in the state who were first to enter public schools denied to blacks; first to serve in government; and the first black police chief in Starkville.I played a key role in bringing the Kinsey Collection of art, rare books, and artifacts to our institution. This six-month exhibition exhibited the collection, hosted lectures by Bernard Kinsey, and featured receptions and workshops with secondary school children. As the Director of African American Studies, I also participated in diversity programs for the university and for student organizations.Other Accomplishments Included:1. Organized the Black Studies Education Conference, which featured student activists from San Francisco State College and Cornell University in 1968 and 1969. This conference celebrated the 10th-anniversary of the African American Studies Program. 2. Directed outreach and engagement efforts aimed at creating a pipeline of under-represented high school students in chemistry, physics, and math for college. 33. Worked with diverse faculty to win a National Science Foundation (NSF) scholarship in chemistry, math, and physics.4. Served as the Mississippi State University representative for the Institutions of Higher Learning Diversity Task Force.5. Convener of the South Eastern Conference (SEC) directors/chairs in Black Studies, which was the first-time black studies professionals meet to network and further their work among SEC schools.6. Served in the faculty senates at the University of Cincinnati, North Carolina State University, and Mississippi State University.HONORSCommunity Achievement Award, Oktibbeha County Branch of the NAACP, 2017 SELECTED TEACHING EXPERIENCE1.
