Happy Friday! ❤️
I can’t even tell you how absolutely thrilled I am to see students tackling research in this way.

Dr. Garrison developed a complete research
manual that was PDF fillable BUT the students wanted their own research book …so she made it happen!

I stopped into the class today and students are able to articulate what they are researching and they’re excited about getting started !

In our next chapter of Black Excellence at the School of Arts and Sciences Virginia Union University VUU

The Eng 101 scholars in Dr. Craddock’s class are:

- learning to upgrade their vocabulary to healing language ( exchanging the term slaves for captives, exchanging trauma for wounds, etc. )

— understanding that good research and evidence can and should centralize black/Bipoc experiences - -we are our own baseline .

— understanding that qualitative data is valuable. Our words, our stories, our pictures, our artifacts , our voice all have a place in our scholarship.

Modupe Wekesa O. Madzimoyo Afiya Madzimoyo for all that you have done to make sure the legacy of healing is passed down through generations.

Edited from Dr. Craddock ❤️

Virginia Union University is going global in science and discovery. (Don’t sleep on the School of Arts and Sciences :)

Dr. Francis E. Mensah, Chair and Associate Professor of Natural Sciences, and Kingston Blackburn, a Physics and Engineering major and Science Engineering Summer Institute student, are representing VUU aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ship Pisces as part of the 2026 Aerosols and Ocean Science Expeditions, known as AEROSE.

Their research will focus on ocean and atmospheric science across the Atlantic, including the study of Saharan mineral dust particles and African air mass outflows and their impact on climate, weather, and environmental health.

This hands-on research opportunity reflects VUU’s commitment to academic excellence, experiential learning, global exploration, and preparing students for careers in STEM and scientific discovery.

Follow VUU and VUEN as we share updates from their journey abroad and highlight the power of HBCU scholarship on a global stage.
