A term which means goodbye. This is not fitting for this graduating class of 1980. We have come to the time where we must part, but this class who has gained strength and unity from our crusade at Morgan will never part. Physically we may never gaze upon each other again, but the learning experience here has taught us that we should remember the unity and practice strength so that it can be felt throughout the world. We will now leave this facade of the world, Morgan State University, and go out into what will be a cold and awakening shock. This is the time to put your learning to work. It is my charge to you to go back into your communities and teach, strengthen and unify our brothers and sisters. You can do it, you have learned. Morgan State University was not a training ground, but a learning experience, this we have gained. As stated so eloquently by our past Seniors Class, let us remember the past and be proud, think of the future with optimism and for today, we live so that we can make a positive impression upon others. We have arrived at the bridge that we said we'd cross when we got to it. Cross it, and walk forever with pride.

A spirit permeates throughout the campus as students build floats, decorate buildings, and prepare for the homecoming parade. Homecoming is a major event here at Morgan, it is a time when Morgan students and alumni get together to relive and reminisce their times at Morgan. Motivation, Strenght, and Unity, our homecoming theme, truly symbolizes the student character of our great university. THE i El r I. HI I.

The show was given before a jam packed Hurt Gym, and as usual... TURNED IT OUT!!! % i MORGAN RITUALS Dr. Larry Coleman To its students and staff a black university provides a special kind of order, structure and a special sense of belongingness. Morgan State University possesses the kind of non academic experiences formal and informal which give it a character rich in black cultural and ritualistic experience The campus experience at Morgan includes powerful rituals like university convocation, homecoming, fraternity and sorority celebrations, student concerts, the fantastic performances of athletes in track meets, football and basketball games and the equally incredible performances of the bands at halftime Black peoples culture is rich with creations which help to make life bearable and even pleasurable. We have a history of organizing our lives around rituals of religion, art and community. These and other aspects of our folk culture impose order on experiences that would be chaotic otherwise. The most powerful such ritual on Morgans campus is homecoming. In fact, Morgans homecoming extends (or moves beyond) ritual into art. It is an artistic celebration with floats decorated and designed by students with an often artfully played football and with an aftergame series of gatherings that explode the meaning of ,homecoming into a cacophony of nostalgic movements, dances and phrases and into a living tapestry of hugging, handshaking, slapping five, stomping marching and general revisitation of Morgan alumni the way we were 1. 5. 10. or 20 years ago. The fraternities and sororities, and independents engage m a ritualprocess that is a unique and balanced dance first among themselves as members one or two limited fraternal families and then as members of one larger university family. They remember with each other, the hard times the fun tunes, the pains of growth and on into the evening they recapture an old harmony. 98 1 101 102 104 DR BETTY SHABAZZ Dr. Betty Shabazz, wife of the late Malcolm X and Associate Professor of Public Health at City University in New York, speaking on the significance and role of the black urban educa- tion institution, challenged Morgan to meet the 6 objective necessary for survival. Black urban educational institutions: 1) will accept students with diverse educational, social, economic, political and cultural expereinces. 2) will seek to prepare students with essential tools and knowledge necessary for career advancement. 3) must seek to prepare students for leadership roles in a changing world so that they can energize as change agents in the community. 4) must seek to facilitate personal growth and development in accordance with the highest personal ideal. 5) must maintain a faculty dedicated to teaching and encour- aging scholarship and research among students. 6) must seek to preserve the wisdom of tradition, the learning of scholars and the beauty of cultural heritage of the students and the community that it attempts to serve. At no time history... has any ethnic group made such vast contributions to society as blacks in this country. We must think in terms of ourselves and generations yet unborn. We have given to this world and this society a heritage that cannot be covered up. 10$ 106 « EARL GRAVES MORGAN ALUMNUS EDITOR AND PUBLISHER BLACK ENTERPRISE MAGAZINE 107 Back in November of 1974, the student body of Morgan State College fought to gain university status. Jo change the name from Morgan State College to Morgan State University would bring about the new challenges that a school receives as a university, and also the challenge of being a predominantly black university. Due to the fact that black universities have produced more black graduates that their white counterparts, accounts for a great deal. Above all, black institutions have a higher rate of retention of black students to the completion of a Bacealaurate Degree. Morgan as a black institution has had to patch the many broken spirits received from atten- dance from schools such as University of Maryland, the University of Baltimore and other schools for the dominant culture”. At Black institutions of higher education, Blacks are given credit for having the ability to think, to reason, and to do research. Morgan State College to become Morgan State University is needed by all the citizens of Maryland, and the rest of the nation. 108 X In November of 1974, a ma- jor percentage of the student body stood in the middle of Coldspring Lane rallying for Uni- versity status. The immediate attention of the community was gained, demonstrating that Mor- gan as a state college would not remain idle and deprived of be- ing a state university. Upward power was presented in the form of signs carried by various students stating that all members of the Morgan commu- nity could use as words of wis- dom in their fight for achieve- ment of a university level The intense emotion felt by all the students was that if Mot gan is to survive as a black institution it must do so as a black university and not as an idle state college. Death or sur- vival was the key approach in the rally to bring on new chal- lenges for the betterment of any black institution. � 09 Report From the Commissioner It was not a standing room only event, but the seats were Idled m Jenkins 104 with concerned student body and faculty members. If you were there you witnessed the rally on the proposed merger between area schools. University of Baltimore. University of Maryland Baltimore County and Morgan State University. The designers of the proposed merger were present to address the issue before the Morgan Community. State Board of Higher Education, commission Sheldon Knorr. Sherman Moore. Student Government President gave the opening remarks and presented to the anxious crowd. Delegate Pete Rawlings, a Morgan graduate and secretary of the Maryland Black Caucus. President Andrew Billingsley and Commissioner Knorr As one entered the door to the lecture hall, a copy of the proposal and a voter's registration form was passed out. Sherman Moor. President Billingsley and Delegate Rawlings, all voiced opin- ions against the merger. Commissioner Knorr admitted as he addressed the attentive audience that the proposal would not be feasible due to the lack of enthusiasm he has received. Students applauded and later asked poignant questions of the Commissioner. Delegate Rawlings provided some interesting figures to the rally audience. Morgamtes learned that a 6 percent budget has been designated to Morgan which is 12.1 million budget, while the University of Maryland College Park receives 10.2 percent which is a 43 Mhon dollar budge. Clearly if Morgan were included m any type of merger, chances are we would not be treated any better than UMFSa fetlow black university under the auspices of the University of Maryland Board of Regents. The concern that tilled that lecture hall on Monday. February 11. 1980. was ust as fiery as the hre that is predicted next tune. 112 113 WHA T’S NEXT? MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY COLO SPRING LANE AND HILLEN ROAD BALTIMORE. MARYLAND 21239 PRESERVING MORGAN AND OTHER HISTORICALL Y BLACK UNIVERSITIES by Sherman Moore I write this out of an earnest concern about the continued existence of Morgan State University and other historically black universities and colleges. Let me begin by congratulating those of us who are about to proceed forward after many years of undergraduate studies. For some of us we will move on to graduate school, law school, and others will begin to make careers in the business world and the military. In light of all of this we find our task cut out for us in the area of higher education, particularly as it relates to historically black universities and Morgan State falls into this category. That task is the preserving of historically black universities and colleges. The question them becomes: Now why would we have a task before us? For several reasons, black universities have produced over 500,000 alumni in this country and abroad, in addition to currently enrolling some 213,000 students. These figures are indicative of the committment that historically black universities have made to black people. So now we have to make a committment to the continued existence of these institutions. In a large context when we speak of preserving black universities, we refer to the financing of these institutions. This concern is paramount when we speak of Morgan State University, we all know that since enrolling at this institution we have never received the proper funding from the state of Maryland simply based on “unbridled racism. However, our alumni have also neglected this institution after receiving the vital knowledge to make it in society. We stress this point because we are now the new alumni of Morgan State University, let us not forget this institution. Proceeding back to the issue of preserving black institutions we offer two solutions that will have to be implemented by black students and black alumni. “Since black institutions have been the direct victims of racism and discrimination, funding schemes should be developed for correcting past funding inequities while providing sufficient current funding for catching up with other institutions in the society. This also means us providing funding from our pockets in order to catch up with the other white institutions. Secondly, we take the position that there must exist an organic and thereby a reciprocal relationship between black instituions and the black community. This relationship must be constructed and maintained based on a constant assessment of the dynamic needs, aspirations, and demands of the black community. It is the obligation of black institutions to provide the needed intellectual, cultural, political, and economic leadership in order to both protect and advance black prople's interest in this social order. Black people both individually and collectively must support, inspire, and guide black institutions if these institutions are to fulfill their potential as community based institutions. Finally, let us never forget the historically black universities and colleges and the role that they have played in the development of black students and black leadership. Give your fiscal and physical support. Save a black college today. SHERMAN MOORE PRESIDENT OF S6A 117 118 v FRED GODETTE - VICE PRESIDENT OF S.G.A. MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY COLD SPRING LANE AND HILLEN ROAD BALTIMORE. MARYLAND 21239 The most powerful student organization on Morgan's campus is the Student Senate. It is representative of all classes. In the spring election each class vote for five senators who act as legislatures for the Student body. Moreover, the presidency of the Student Senate is the responsibility of the Vice President of the Student Govern- ment Association. The Senate is empowered with the right to confirm or reject appointments of Executive officers, to review, confirm or reject the budget proposal submitted by the Comptroller of the S.G.A.. And to accept or reject petetioning organizations to be housed on campus.

Producing a yearbook, contrary to other views, is a very challenging, demanding, and tedious task. A yearbook is not just a conglomeration of pictures thrown together, but a publication with pictorial and journalistic highlights of your days at Morgan State University. This year the Promethean faced many obstacles ranging from insufficient funds, contractual disagreements, inadequate staffing, and cramping working quarters; nevertheless, the Promethean staff perservered. Each and every senior should be proud to know that the Promethean staff surmounted many obstacles to ensure that a yearbook was produced representative of Morgan. I would like to thanking the working staff for their help and extreme dedication in making this book a reality. I would also like to thank all persons for aiding me in this education endeavor, and giving me the strength and the confidence to endure. I would also like to congratulate the class of 1980, may you continue to prosper, may your life be successful, and may you find happiness. Above all I would like each and every senior to continue to perpertuate Morganism. Yours truly.
