February is Black History Month and our student-led club, Black Student Alliance, is leading in the celebration. The BSA has planned several events that educate the FA community on Black culture and history.
The BSA-sponsored food drive began on January 31 and will run until March 11. The items collected will be donated to the Union Baptist Church Food Pantry in Hempstead. The church's initiative is to help their predominately black community throughout the year. If you would like to donate, boxes are located in all three division:

During the month, history classes will be learning about prominent black figures in society. The information and bios shared in each class was written by members of the BSA.
