Calling all alumni! This year, we’re joining together to give directly to our students. Due to recent changes, students have stepped up to plan their graduate recognition celebration (what many of us might have called Black Grads) — and we want to show them that the alumni community has their back.

We’re asking 150 alumni to give $30 between now and next Tuesday. Every gift goes directly to supporting their vision, their celebration, and their joy.

Funds can be sent via CashApp ($SocietyBlackAlum) or Zelle ([email protected]). Please put “BSA” in the note field.

Give $30. Make a difference. Stand with our students.

Usually, spooky season brings lighthearted fears—but what’s happening across our country right now is real scary ish. We hated having to write this statement, but we wanted to ease the concerns that members of our community may have about our path forward.

Across the nation, states have begun implementing anti-DEI laws that have impacted organizations, programs, financial resources, and even graduation and cultural celebrations—directly harming marginalized students. We knew it was only a matter of time before the state of Kentucky, and our beloved institution, decided to fall in line and comply—putting many of the things our Black Hilltopper community loves and relies on in jeopardy.

But we remain committed to our mission and to serving our community.

How can you immediately support?! Show up this weekend and be immersed in the Black Hilltopper Homecoming Spirit. Click the link below to read our full statement and to purchase tickets to this weekend's events. The proceeds from our ticket sales will go towards supporting initiatives and programs impacted by WKU’s implementation of HB4.
