Morehouse
College
Atlanta,
Georgia
Although times change,
Morehouse’s mission remains steadfast: to produce academically
superior, morally conscious leaders for the conditions and issues
of today, whether “today” is post-Civil War or turn
of the new millennium.
Morehouse graduates
include many well-known people who changed the world. Martin Luther
King Jr. led the country through one of its most transforming
civic movements; David Satcher resuscitated the issues of health
care disparity and access; Maynard Jackson taught the world the
value of diversity and equal access as the first African American
mayor of Atlanta; Donn Clenendon scored in the history annals
and was part of a miracle when he was named a World Series MVP;
and Shelton “Spike” Lee continues to challenge how
the world views blacks in life with critically acclaimed films.
Morehouse is redefining
the meaning of leadership. It’s not about attaining the
highest title or position, but about attaining skills such as
compassion, civility, integrity and even listening. Morehouse
is poised to become the epicenter of ethical leadership as we
continue to develop leaders who are spiritually disciplined, intellectually
astute and morally wise.
Many Morehouse students
travel or study abroad, awakening them to the complexities of
a global community. In today’s age, ethical leaders must
have an appreciation of different perspectives and customs, and
must also be prepared to negotiate the discordant views that are
converging from the four corners of the globe.
Morehouse
is committed to training the leaders who will change their communities,
the nation and the world.
